I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SAP (Vancouver, BC) in May 2017
Interview
I was accepted for live interview through employee referral. There were two interviews of one hour each. The second interview came only because I made it through the first.
There was a five minute break in between.
Interviewers were very polite and easygoing, yet professional. Topics covered include coding exercises and design questions.
Online assessment with role-based MCQs and coding questions, followed by two technical rounds, concluding with final HR round for cultural fit and offer discussion.Technical Round 1: Core concepts, data structures, algorithms. May include live coding or system design based on experience level. Technical Round 2: Deeper dive into projects, advanced problem-solving, and role-specific tech stacks. Often with senior engineers or team leads.
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.
