I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at SAP (München, Bayern) in Jun 2018
Interview
Extremely unprofessional and dishonest recruitment process, I was verbally offered the position and then the manager ghosted me for a month before sending me the rejection. It cost me other good positions, as I verbally accepted the offer and had to decline the others.
The interview spanned two stages, in the first stage, it was a chat over Skype with the hiring manager discussing my CV and past experiences. The second stage was an on-site interview with system design questions and solutions. The hiring manager made a verbal offer on spot and said that he's initiating the HR hiring process. There was another email later containing the project brochure and a message saying "looking forward to welcoming you on the team".
Then the manager disappeared, after emailing several times and I got a very cold response months later, saying that the HR lady would contact me "in a few weeks". The HR lady then sends me the standard rejection, saying that they're not proceeding with my application.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAP (Bengaluru) in Jan 2016
Interview
There was a screen test first and then a call to go on campus. It was a hiring event, so there were about 100 people. They divided people into groups, depending on the managers who had selected to take candidates into their team, and were ready to interview. So the hiring process was for all across teams at SAP. There were 4 rounds:
Round 1 - with the manager (technical)
Round 2 - with a product owner in the team (also technical), more about resume and previous experience
Round 3 - with senior management. This was a technical and challenging interview. They like to see how you would take the stress and handle the situation.
Round 4 - HR - Not a technical round, but some design related problems (previously dealt with by SAP) are posed to you and they see how you approach it.
