I applied online. I interviewed at Revolut in Mar 2020
Interview
Brief interview with an internal recruiter, and then I was assigned take home tasks.
Felt like I wasted a week of my evenings on the take home tasks, working until midnight and on the weekend as well, to just get a few lines of bullet pointed feedback and a rejection on something I felt like I put a huge amount of effort in considering the time I had. Wish I could get that week of my life back.
Fair enough I suppose, but very disheartening. I would have been more neutral in my response if there was encouragement to apply again, considering the time I put in. I found the task itself really interesting, though a lot of it is subject to your own interpretations. Despite having the technical skills, there was a set criteria to meet on what they wanted to see on the analysis that I fell short of. I feel if I had the extra time or was not working, I could have nailed the detail. However, I felt like I put as much effort in as I could given the time I had, but what a headache it was.
Understandable if they need to sift the applicants somehow. However, the very impersonal application process has put me off and I would not want to apply again. Reading other reviews of the organisation, it does not sound like Revolut care for individuals and I get a sense of that attitude from this experience alone.

Application
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Revolut (Singapore) in Jul 2025
Interview
Resume walk through and relevant experience, with time for questions at the end. The problem was that the metrics they use to value current company is latest valuation, even if things like GAV are more relevant. It is exactly 30 minutes and they will cut you off during a sentence if it goes over a few seconds.
worst experience of my life, had 7 rounds and then they told me they would proceed with the offer and later rejecting me after ONE MONTH. I did tests, business cases, inverviews etc.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Revolut (Madrid) in May 2022
Interview
Consistió en una revisión del CV, después una entrevista con recursos humanos (preguntas generales sobre experiencia y estudios), y posteriormente una entrevista con el manager en la que tuve que hacer un business case que me propusieron.
Daban 10 mins para pensarlo y después proponerlo.
