Hey all,

We are excited to invite everyone to the Quora Programming Challenge 2021, a free programming competition open to participants from around the world*! The competition will take place from Saturday, February 6th, 2021 to Sunday, February 7th, 2021, in two divisions of 4 hours each, to accommodate different timezones.

Quora is a platform to ask questions, get useful answers, and share what you know with the world. On this contest, we include some problems inspired by real-world challenges that Quora engineers faced in building and growing the product. In addition to competitive programming-style questions, there will also be some machine learning problems. We hope that this contest will be fun for everyone!

The top contestants in each division will be able to win the following prizes:

• 1st place: $2000
• 2nd place: $1000
• 3rd place: $500
• 4th — 10th: $200
• Top 50 finishers: Quora Challenge T-Shirt

Our recruiting team will also be reaching out to top participants for their interest in interviewing for roles at Quora. We recently became a remote-first company, so you don’t have to relocate to work with us.

Register for the competition here by 2/5/2021: https://www.quora.com/careers/challenge.

Hope to see you at the contest!
