I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SAP (Potsdam) in Mar 2017
Interview
There was an offline test conducted before I had face to face interview.
offline test will be creating some small project.
I was interviewed in Potsdam location, where I had to face 3 rounds of interview.
1-> Technical (tip: Know your basics, Design patterns are important)
2-> Case study round( tip: Know your domain, I was asked to explain complete architecture of the previous project including hardware limitations and pros and cons of moving it to cloud)
3-> Hr+ manager round(tip: Be prepared for question on your notice, salary, expectations and motivation)
each of these rounds lasted for 1 hour each.
It was ok, hiring manager was cool, asking about motivation and experience, they are looking for someone who's communicative and open. Show your interest in a company and what you're supposed to do in this role and you'll be fine
It was long, but the process was also transparent. The recruiter was also nice, but there were basic questions, so don’t get too technical. I recommend studying basic technical concepts, but I didn’t make it past this round.
I applied online. I interviewed at SAP (Potsdam) in Feb 2026
Interview
Process was 30min get-to-know, 60 tech interview and 1 onsite day. Tech Interview was about reviewing "AI generated" code and making improvement suggestions. Completely doable and fair, but a BIG negative was that I applied with Java and TypeScript knowledge, but got asked to refactor Python code in the tech interview. I did NOT apply for a Python position. I even asked which language would be used during the get-to-know and got told "you will be able to choose". Please let your candidates know if you're planning to test them in a specific languages in order to give them a fair chance to prepare.
