J.P. Morgan’s Code for Good Hackathon
The Code for Good hackathon gives you the chance to put your coding skills towards doing good for nonprofit organisations. It’s also a great opportunity to see whether a career in financial services technology is for you.
Over the course of 24 hours, you and your team will develop a technology solution for a leading nonprofit organisation. You’ll get to work side by side with our expert JPMorgan technologists, learning from their experience as you creatively solve real world problems faced by social organisations. You are encouraged to come up with cutting-edge ideas that could make a difference to the people who need it most.
In addition to networking with other aspiring software engineers from other countries, Code for Good is also a chance to meet our recruiting teams and experience what it’s like to work as a software engineer at JPMorgan.
The event will take place at our JPMorgan Glasgow office. Participants will need to bring their own laptops for the event. Further details and instructions will be provided to successful applicants.
