Goldman Sachs Recruitment 2026 for Freshers | Tax Documentation Analyst | Bengaluru

Goldman Sachs Recruitment 2026: Goldman Sachs is hiring an Analyst for its Tax Documentation team in Bengaluru. Both freshers and experienced candidates can apply, and a degree in accounting, finance or business administration is preferred. So B.Com, BBA, and M.Com freshers can apply.

This is an operations role inside the Tax division, not a tax advisory job. The team handles things like client tax forms (W-8 / W-9), tax reclaims on dividends and interest, and issuing tax documents to clients. It’s detail-heavy work, but getting Goldman Sachs on your resume as your first job is a big deal, and the pay is well above most fresher back-office roles.

Who Can Apply

Who Cannot Apply

If you don’t have any commerce, finance or business background, shortlisting will be hard. Students still in college can’t apply, and there’s no remote option.

Required Skills

Accuracy is the big one. Beyond that, basic tax and financial product knowledge, Excel (SQL or Alteryx is a bonus), clear communication and staying calm when deadlines pile up. If you already know about FATCA or W-8 / W-9 forms, put it on your resume.

Goldman Sachs Selection Process

Goldman Sachs doesn’t list the rounds in the job post. For analyst roles in operations teams, the process usually looks like this:

1. Online application on higher.gs.com
2. Online assessment (aptitude, reasoning, sometimes Excel)
3. Video or phone screening (HireVue is used often)
4. 1-2 technical / team interviews
5. HR / superday round

This is only a rough idea. The real rounds can be different, so go by what they send on email.
