SAP Labs FTE Interview Experience | On-Campus 2019

SAP Labs came to IIT  Roorkee campus placements in December 2019.

Online Test:         This was an online test in which the company tested our coding skills(2 coding questions). The coding questions were different for every student.

1. Given two vectors. One contain array element “ele” and other indexes “ind” to push corresponding element at that index in new array shifting all elements to its right. For ex: ele = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} ind ={0, 1, 2, 1, 2} ans: {0, 3, 4, 1, 2}   ele: {0, 1, 2} ind: {0, 1, 0} ans: {2, 0, 1} .
2. Given the locations of all the cars parked in an array and an integer k, minimum no of cars to be covered by shelter, return the minimum length of shelter needed to cover k cars. Eg: [6 2 12 7] and k=3, min length is 6 (from 2 to 7)

Round 1:        The first round was a face to face technical interview where they asked about my interests, internship and projects. The interviewer was very polite and asked me to explain any project of my choice and I explained my internship project and also showed him the detailed work of internship in a PPT which I had made earlier for company presentation.

He also asked a very easy competitive problem(fibonnaci).

Round 2:     The second round was also a technical round where they asked me a few questions on SQL queries(easy). The interviewer then asked me some questions on the concepts of Object Oriented Programming(Polymorphism etc) and Networks (OSI Model). This round was basically for core CS knowledge like DBMS, OOPs and Networks.

Round 3:        The third round was a Technical+Managerial round where the manager of the company basically interacted with me about my graduation,   achievement, hobbies, and interests mentioned in my CV followed by few Managerial questions. They also asked a technical question which was an easy logical question(just has to give them the logic without code).

Round 4:         The fourth round was a face to face HR interview which was a basic conversation about my likes and dislikes, interests which I have mentioned in my CV. HR was very young and quite friendly. He asked me about my preference for location and my strength, weakness etc. Finally, 6 students out of 340 were placed in SAP and I was one of them.

Advice:

1. Do a thorough research about the company, check its history, what it works on, what are its new projects. The interviewers are really impressed with how much you know about the company and how your previous experience will help them grow.
2. Extra co-curricular in your CV also helps you stand apart in the list. Be confident and give your best. Good Luck!
