Applications are invited for the Google Hash Code (programming competition) for the year 2023. Check the details below!

About Google Hash Code

Hash Code, Google’s team-based programming competition, allows you to share your skills and connect with other coders as you work together to solve a problem modeled off a real Google engineering challenge! In small teams of two to four, coders all over the world will tackle the first problem through Qualification Round. Though this round is hosted online, teams can collaborate virtually to compete side-by-side in locally coordinated Hash Code Hubs. The top teams from this round are invited to join us for the virtual World Finals.

How it works

This is our online platform where you’ll form your team, join a Hub, practice, and compete during the rounds.
During the Qualification Round, you’ll watch our YouTube live stream to be introduced to the problem, and your team will have four hours to solve an optimization problem using the programming language and tools of your choice.
Teams can also compete alongside other teams in your area by joining a virtual Hub.
The top teams from the Qualification Round will be invited to the virtual World Finals, where they’ll work together to solve another challenge and compete for cash prizes.

Contest Structure

The HC Contest consists of two (2) rounds: the qualification round (the “Qualification Round”) and the final round (the “World Finals”). Google reserves the right to change the date, time, location, and structure of any round at its sole discretion.
Qualification Round:
- The Qualification Round will take place on Thursday, April 13, 2023, from 17:30 UTC until 21:30 UTC.
- All participants will be notified of the Qualification Round results by Tuesday, April 18, 2023.
- This date may be postponed by Google (at its sole discretion) by an information notice on the HC Contest website.
World Finals:
- The World Finals are scheduled to be held on Saturday, July 29, 2023, at a time to be determined and announced on the HC Contest website.
- During the World Finals, your Team will be asked to solve a challenge using your own computer equipment and materials.
- Teams will be notified about the structure of the World Finals at least 30 days before the competition.
