The problem with HackerRank

Great for general tech interviews, but quant finance requires specialized preparation

Enterprise tool, not interview prep

HackerRank is designed for companies to screen candidates - not to help you prepare. It's a testing platform, not a learning platform.

Generic coding skills only

HackerRank tests general programming. Zero coverage of quant algorithms, financial math, or the quant-specific content that quant firms actually ask.

Certifications don't matter for quant

HackerRank certifications might help for generic SWE roles. Quant firms care about trading knowledge and problem-solving, not certificates.
