About the Challenge

At Quora, we work on difficult programming challenges on a daily basis. We wanted to share some of the interesting problems that we work on. Thus, we drew inspiration from real-world challenges in our product, systems, and machine learning applications to create an interesting set of algorithm problems that we hope you’ll enjoy.

Divisions

In order to accomodate a wide range of timezones, we will be holding the contest in two divisions. Each division will have its own unique set of problems and a separate set of winners and prizes. Participants can join one or both divisions. The divisions will be held at the following times:

  • Division 1: Feb 6 2021, 14:00 to 18:00 (UTC + 00:00)
  • Division 2: Feb 7 2021, 01:00 to 05:00 (UTC + 00:00)

Prizes

Top place finishers in each division will be awarded the following prizes:

  • 1st place: $2000 USD
  • 2nd place: $1000 USD
  • 3rd place: $500 USD
  • 4th to 10th place: $200 USD
  • Top 50 places: Quora T-Shirt

Participants who score well may also be fast-tracked through our interview process, if they are interested in roles at Quora.
