Walmart’s 3rd CodeHers collaboration with Unstop. Walmart hired 300+ women from ~1,00,000 female coders in previous hackathons across two editions.
30th January 2024, New Delhi: Unstop, the community engagement and hiring platform for students and graduates, is back with the 3rd edition of Walmart CodeHers hiring challenge. Set to be bigger and better than the last two editions, the CodeHers 2024 will be India’s biggest hiring challenge conducted exclusively for women, providing them a golden opportunity to land their dream job. In the past 2 editions, Walmart CodeHers has provided female coders a chance to showcase their skills and make their way into a Fortune #1 Company.
Open to all female undergraduate and postgraduate students across India’s engineering colleges, CodeHers 2024 has 3 levels that participants must succeed in to become the ultimate winners. Level 1 will comprise an MCQ challenge while Level 2 will be a Coding challenge where shortlisted participants will present logical coding solutions to two problem statements. Participants who clear both Levels 1 and 2 will then be shortlisted for the final level, which will involve a profile verification and an interview process.
The top 15 students from each graduating batch (2024 and 2025) will receive a cash prize of INR 30,000. But that’s not all. The top coders from the 2025 graduating batch will be offered direct summer internship opportunities at Walmart Global Tech India in Chennai or Bangalore with a monthly stipend of INR 1,00,000-1,10,000 lakh.
The top coders from the 2024 graduating batch will also be contacted for Pre Placement Interviews against relevant opportunities for Software roles at Walmart Global Tech India.

Ankit Aggarwal, Founder and CEO of Unstop, shared his thoughts. “10 lakh+ females are enrolled in Engineering & Tech courses in India as per the AISHE report. Walmart CodeHers gives this talented cohort a great opportunity to showcase their skills. Building on the success of the last two editions, India’s premier hiring challenge for females, CodeHers 2024 aims to be bigger and better. Together with Walmart, we are committed to fostering diversity and empowering female talent in the tech industry.”
