SAP Labs Interview Experience

Round 1(Technical): Introduction, few questions on projects after that few questions were asked.

1. Given ‘n’. If n is divisible by 7 then print A. If n is divisible by 5 then print B. If both then print A B. It seems easy, and he wanted the best way to do it rather than a linear if-else.
2. Intermediate SQL Query.
3. Threads in Java
4. He asked if I knew advanced networking, I said no, so he asked other questions.
5. Since I mentioned GCP on my resume, he asked why GCP? Advantages of the cloud. Any disadvantages? Suppose SAP wants to move a particular server to the cloud, what are the considerations and requirements etc.
6. AutoML on GCP
7. Comments on distributed systems.
8. MVC Architecture.
9. Linux OS: Explain how vim editors internally work (file buffer, etc)
10. Reverse a linked list: I had to describe all approaches until he was satisfied.

Do you have any questions for me?

7. Anyone path in a maze from source to the destination: Difference in the DFS and BFS approaches for the same.

9. Another matrix-based code
10. Which programming language am I comfortable with?
11. Multithreading in Java
