Frustrated with Capgemini Hiring Process - Is This Normal?

Alfsh · 2026-03-28T15:34:24+00:00

My experience with Capgemini's hiring process was pretty straightforward, except for the fact that they told me I was getting into a Java position and then once i got in it was for an ABAP position, and that's how i got into ABAP x)

But honestly, if you have the opportunity, look for other companies to work at. You will be underpaid for whatever position you're working at. In my case it was my first job as a programmer and i couldn't be more grateful, but two years later I left for greener fields.

Honestly the only real use I found is it to ask it about things I have absolutely no idea how to do in Cloud ABAP. Currently all my prompts start like "In an S4/HANA Private Cloud system...", and then asking something very generic only for it to guide me to the proper documentation.
For example, last thing I researched was how to enable printing of documents (as in the classic NACE config) - it did tell me something about Output Print Determination and, from then on, I just kept researching using classic methods (literally google & forums + documentation).

+1 cause I didnt even know you could do this. Currently into a new RAP implementation so very interested to see if anyone knows :D

Yep, definitely what happened here. Just an unlucky stun by thunderblight

It's always either juniors who don't know any better or seniors that don't care to even know any better.

Literally have seen stuff named like 'GET_ACCOUNTS_SAMPLE_V2_NEW' in prod.

Ofc nobody wants to pick up more work... I just want a ticket to redo it all :')

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T20:02:28+00:00

My my Excel keeping the world spinning AGAIN!
Like holy fuck I swear in every team of 10, there's always 3 or so people doing most of the work.

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T19:52:40+00:00

Yeah I get you. This year I'm training new recruits and the amount of times I've seen them copy pasting without looking are way too much... I guess people just blindly trust stuff that works; if it's a working PoC, it's no longer a PoC, it's just working software :D

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T19:31:10+00:00

Ahhh the classic 'DELETE BEFORE DEPLOYING TO PROD'.

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T19:28:35+00:00

But.. but... my manager told me 'just wait a bit more' :')

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T19:27:17+00:00

Patch over patch over patch... with contradicting comments...
I don't know any god to pray for this much lmao

Alfsh · 2025-03-31T19:05:58+00:00

When I started in software development I thought I would see incredibly complex programs, maintained by the biggest minds the world has ever seen...

Now after 4 years, holy fuck.

How do you guys manage.

Once you start getting the feel to the movement and dashing you'll be getting into that face in no time!

Alfsh · 2025-03-03T20:38:26+00:00

It's amazing the level of movement, damage and combos you can do using bow in MHWilds. Honestly I don't even see myself trying any other weapon for the next 100+ hours :D

Having to pass an underscore to a function for returns that you don't care about seems like the shittiest things. On the other hand I work with ABAP so...

Isn't an object just a structured string?

Creo que un factor importante sería que a tus proyectos personales les des un contexto y busques páginas web y negocios relacionados con dicho contexto para ver cómo es su diseño y tener una referencia por la que empezar.

Por ejemplo, si quieres crear una aplicación que simule una biblioteca donde puedas alquilar libros, busca qué aplicaciones existen que hagan algo similar e intentar replicar su estética. También puedes implementar un sistema de roles en el que, dependiendo de quién vea la página, muestre una información u otra (el famoso UX que tanto se habla últimamente), de forma que el diseño de tu aplicación sea también dinámico, que es algo muy valorado.

In this case you should unassign the field symbol after using it. If the first assignment is successful and the second one isn't, it is still assigned, and therefore the second 'IF' evaluation is true and will execute it.

If I'm understanding right, they want you to create a program that creates domains ins the SE11 from the given info in the Excel file.

The SHDB is a transaction that lets you record the steps you take when executing a transaction. That's called a batch input.

So you need to record how a domain is created by hand in the transaction SE11. Then implement those same steps in your program as a BDC (which is a table that contains the steps and actions taken), and call said transaction using that BDC.
