I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAP (Bengaluru)
Interview
2 F2F rounds, first was just checking aptitude of the subject, however second one was thorough. It was a well designed process. Interviewer first finalizes topic of discussion then questions are asked. So better be cautious before agreeing. Was interviewed for IMS, having 50-50% maintenance and development tasks.

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.
It is an in-person interview, which was smooth and conversational. We discussed my background, reviewed my work, talked through role-related questions, and ended with a clear sense of the team, expectations, and next steps.
