I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAP (Calicut, Kerala) in Sep 2015
Interview
SAP labs visited my college
There were 4 rounds
1. MCQ and programming
2 Personal interview - mostly managerial related questions
3 Personal interview - Technical questions related to C, C++, SDLC, Software Testing etc.
4 Telephonic round - This was the final round with some senior person in the company. It was mostly like HR round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1: You must build houses on both sides of the road and no 2 houses must be adjacent i.e. there must be at least 1 free plot between any 2 house.
example:
i/p: 3 (no. of plots)
o/p: 25 (no. of ways to build a street)
explanation
y-house,x-free plot
possible ways to design - xyx yxy yxx xxy xxx
Since they will be built on both sides of the road, possible no of ways will be 5*5=25
2: Check for duplicate digits in a number
3: What will be the output of “printf(“%d”)”
4:Error handling in C. “errno() and perror()”
5: malloc and calloc
6: Questions related to OOPS
7: Questions related to software engineering SDLC and different models
I applied online. I interviewed at SAP (Brno) in Jun 2026
Interview
3 rounds of interviews: quick prescreening call with HR, on-site meeting with the manager, and a tech call with the lead engineer.
Prescreening was as usual. On the same day, I got a call from the manager and planned a second round for the next workday.
The second round was the most important. First quick introduction, then easy puzzle, then 15 min of technical questions (OOP, basic programming principles, Relational DBs, etc) - pretty easy, nothing too deep. Then, about 40 minutes talk about previous experience, position, hobbies, and other basic topics. Very pleasant and friendly, good atmosphere.
The third round was very quick - no live coding, a couple of architectural questions, static code analysis, and how to improve it (N+1 problem), SQL questions, overall around 10-15 minutes.
Received an offer a couple of days after. The whole process was clean, friendly, and fast at every level.

Question 1
How would you add a new PK to a table with 1 million entries?
What is OOP? Explain polymorphism.
What is relational DB? What is an index?
I interviewed at SAP (Walldorf, Baden-Wurttemberg)
Interview
The SAP interview process included an initial screening, technical discussion, problem-solving questions, experience-based conversations, and behavioral assessment, followed by an opportunity to discuss role expectations and ask questions with interviewers.
Interview process was okayish, focused on candidates with AI and RAG skills, if you have built projects you have a chance, otherwise you may be rejected after the online test.
