"I completed my Bachelor of Applied Technology from Carnegie Mellon University in 2004. During that time I specialized in data management and analysis. I graduated with a 3.95 GPA, one of the top students in my class. One of the biggest take-aways from my post-secondary experience was learning how to manage my time while working on multiple projects successfully. I perfected my multi-tasking skills and look forward to bringing those to work for Robinhood."

In your answer, you can discuss memorable courses, extracurriculars, or any special academic recognition you received in your university and graduate education. Focus on discussing the strengths you gained and how those skills will be used in your new position with Robinhood. Avoid simply listing what can easily be found on your resume. Rather, highlight what you gained from these experiences and how they will prepare you for a new role with Robinhood.
