      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Nov 1, 2023
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Londres, Inglaterra
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Revolut (Londres, Inglaterra) in Oct 2023

      Interview

      It's a lengthy process and I didn't go past the first coding interview. First you have a call with the recruiter that follows a scripts and will ask you a bunch of questions. Topics include: ACID, HashMap time complexity, database indexes, difference between backwards and forwards compatibility, difference between sharding and partitioning.. Lots of questions can't remember all of them. If you get through that, it will be the first coding interview. They tell you to set up a simple (no framework) java project beforehand, and during the interview you will receive some instructions. I was asked to code a load balancer. The requirements will force you in a way that you will be forced to make decisions about concurrency. The interviewer was nice, but it's incredibly disappointing that their style of interviewing seem to be biased to make people fail. They will put in a trap and make you think of a solution in 10 seconds. If you don't, they will fail you. It's not at all a representation of real life work. No wonder you almost never see anyone getting an offer, they must enjoy spending money on recruitment. In my view, I was able to find adequate solutions for all the problems he forced me into. And he sometimes just disregarded some simpler solutions like making the LoadBalancer class immutable. Like many other companies, the recruitment process of Revolut is simply broken. Won't be applying again.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Revolut

      Interview

      The experience was disappointing and reflected a lack of professionalism. The interaction gave the impression of a disorganised or potentially unhealthy work culture. Answered most of the questions accurately and to the best of my ability. The interview was initially scheduled for a short time slot. Toward the end, the interviewer asked for my availability and indicated that they would schedule a follow-up session to continue the discussion. However, no further communication or follow-up was received.

      Senior Software Engineer Interview

      May 20, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Revolut in May 2026

      Interview

      During the initial HR screening call, the recruiter explicitly stated that Revolut was not hiring for a specific team and that team fit would be determined only after the coding and system design stages. However, after passing the screening, I received the following rejection message: “After carefully reviewing your experience, we've decided to move forward with candidates whose profiles more closely align with the specific requirements of the role. Please note that this decision is based on current team needs.” This creates a clear inconsistency in the communication. If team allocation and specific requirements were to be evaluated only in later technical rounds, a rejection citing “current team needs” right after screening appears contradictory. Such practices can lead to candidates investing time in the interview process based on incomplete or misleading information at the early stage.

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Revolut in Apr 2026

      Interview

      I interviewed for a Senior Software Engineer (Java) role. The process was structured and fairly fast-paced: recruiter/screening conversation, technical discussions (coding and system design) focused on backend engineering and distributed systems, and a final manager/team-fit stage. Communication from recruiting was clear, and timelines were shared proactively. Overall, the process felt rigorous but very professional
