Received email to confirm availability from GS 10 days after HackerRank

Hello,

I hope you’re doing well. I received today an email from Goldman Sachs with a one-day deadline to confirm my graduation date and availability for the Off-Cycle Internship. I completed the HackerRank assessment 10 days ago, and while I scored 90% on programming, I wasn't as confident about my performance in the math section. Does this email indicate any positive progression in my application, or is it simply a standard part of the process?

Thank you,

Best,

hey! 

It’s a good sign! Receiving an email to confirm your availability typically indicates you’re moving forward in the process. While it doesn’t guarantee an offer or next step, it shows that your HackerRank performance was likely good enough to remain competitive. Make sure to respond promptly and accurately. Best of luck! Let me know if you need further guidance.

If you haven't already figured it out, there's a separate Q&A for finance. I would post this question there to get insights from the right audience. Good luck!

Hey there, 

This looks like a request for information which maybe was omitted when you were filling out your profile... I don't want to speculate too much, so better to clarify any questions you may have with the recruiting and HR team!

All the best

Hi there,

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • First of all, this seems to be nothing more than a request to complete your profile with Goldman Sachs.
  • Moreover, I would advise you to ask this question in the Finance Q&A as well.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on your specific situation, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen
