Mentors who have worked at Goldman Sachs
Talk to engineers and quants from Goldman Sachs about technology in finance, the interview process, and how engineering careers work inside a bank rather than a tech company.
Before you book a Goldman Sachs mentor
How do I choose the right Goldman Sachs mentor?
Engineering inside a bank is a genuinely different career from engineering at a product company: different progression, different relationship to the business, and different constraints on how software gets shipped. Neither is better, but choosing between them without talking to someone who has done both is a coin flip.
What should I bring to a Goldman Sachs mentor session?
The interview process typically combines conventional technical rounds with questions about how you handle risk, precision and regulated environments. Preparation that is entirely algorithmic will miss half of it.
If you are considering moving from finance into big tech or the other way, ask specifically how your title and level map across. The mapping is not intuitive and getting it wrong costs real money.
