I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at SAP (Texas City, TX) in Jun 2024
Interview
I interviewed with the Hiring manager directly for the SAP Associate Consultant role. He needed specific skills and tech services like C, C++, etc. I fulfilled all of them with my background. I answered all his questions in STAR methodology and in relevance to the job. I also answered his technical questions like what is a pointer, inheritance, etc. This role was both tech and sales sort, which I did not understand as he said, I may have to travel a lot in this job. I agreed to all the requirements. He said he would get back to me but later rejected me with no feedback.
Applicants being treated like garbage in this 2024 job market is the worst. This not only affect one confidence but also their mental wellbeing. But KARMA prevails.

Interview
I am not sure how an online recruitment agency how my resume, possibly via monster. I had a brief phone interview following which I was told I would be interviewing with SAP America. The first recruiter who spoke to me asked me questions from a general questionnaire. I thought this interview did not go well since I found a lot of the question technical in nature, whereas I am a functional guy. She told me that she did not expect me to know everything. To my surprise, I got a call from a lead recruiter after two days.
Based on my experience I was offered to interview for two Associate level positions. Both the interviewing processes were held in parallel. Interview consisted of conversation related to my resume and consulting.To my astonishment, I was asked to come in for a face-to-face interview for both positions.
Position 1 - Manager phone interview + Face-to-face proposal
Position 2 - Manager phone interview + Platinum consultant phone interview + Face-to-face proposal.
The recruiter asked me to pick one position over the other and advised me that if this interviewing process didn't work out I would be able to interview for the other position. I preferred position 2 as it was more intimate to my background and I really connected to the manager over the phone.
I was called in for a face-to-face interview. I was flown to an airport and the manager met me at the airport and interviewed me there itself. It was a great interview and the manager was a pleasure to speak with. Near the conclusion I asked what I can expect next, and I was hinted that the recruiter will get in touch with me for an offer in the coming days.
