Check the following ABAP code. What would it print? // I A B // II B A // III A A // IV B B // V A // VI B // VII No output
Medium Data Processing in ABAP SQL Joins Internal Tables	Try practice test
In the given ABAP pseudo code, data from two tables `zemployee` and `zdepartment` is being retrieved and processed. The code aims to handle records from employees in the 'Sales' department with a salary greater than 5000. Consider the efficiency and optimization of the code: The goal is to optimize the code for performance, especially considering the potential size of the data in the tables. Which of the following options would be the most effective optimization? A: Replace nested IF with a single IF statement using AND. B: Use a JOIN statement in SELECT to combine tables and directly apply the conditions for 'Sales' department and salary > 5000. C: Implement a secondary index on zemployee for the salary field. D: Use FOR ALL ENTRIES instead of nested SELECT statements. E: Optimize the READ TABLE statement with a binary search. F: Change LOOP AT it_employee to a parallel cursor technique.

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment SAP ABAP Online Test in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.

SAP ABAP Hiring Test FAQs

What is SAP ABAP Assessment?

The SAP ABAP Online Test is helps recruiters evaluate candidates' SAP ABAP skills before an interview. Recruiters can use this pre-employment test to determine which candidates have experience in designing, developing, and implementing ABAP modules and the ability to implement complex ABAP programs.

Can I combine multiple skills into one custom assessment?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

Do you have any anti-cheating or proctoring features in place?

We have the following anti-cheating features in place:

Non-googleable questions
IP proctoring
Screen proctoring
Web proctoring
Webcam proctoring
Plagiarism detection
Secure browser
Copy paste protection

Read more about the proctoring features.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
