NoidaPosted Jun 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

For this role, the interviews were very focused on SAP ABAP.

I started with an HR screening, and then the technical interview zeroed in on SAP ABAP concepts like reports, enhancements, and debugging, including ABAP on HANA.

The final stage assessed more than just whether I could describe ABAP topics. They also evaluated how I solved problems, how I communicated, my experience from projects, and whether I seemed like a good fit for the SAP ABAP Developer role overall.

Difficulty-wise it felt difficult because the questions were concept-specific and deep in that domain. I didn’t receive an offer, and honestly it left me feeling like the bar was high
