Engineering is the division candidates report most often. The same order was described for interns and new graduate analysts from 2021 to 2025.

  1. 1

    Online application

    • A cover letter was required with the application.
    • The portal does not let you reapply after withdrawing an application.

    • Any programming language is allowed.
    • A fast-track programming challenge was reported with three questions: two algorithm problems and one API task.
    • For the 2027 cycle the test changed to two timed sections: 30 minutes of Software Fundamentals, then 45 minutes of Software Diagnostics, where you fix a bug in a web framework project.
  3. 3

    Maths section

    HackerRank
    • Some engineering and quant applicants get a 180-minute version of the test with a multiple-choice maths section on top of the coding.
    • About nine or ten questions covering probability, statistics, calculus and linear algebra.
    • Candidates found the maths harder than the coding.
