I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Revolut in Nov 2019
Interview
I think the Revolut interview process is by far the most transparent interview process I have been through. A special callout to their recruiter for always keeping me in the loop on the true status and progress of my application. After a few interesting rounds of interviews(recruiter screen, take-home assignment, and 1:1 product interview), it was discovered that my experience was not in line with the current role they were hiring for. Most other companies just abruptly stop all communication with an automated email at this point. However, the Revolut recruitment team kept sharing real feedback with me and kept trying to get my profile reviewed by other teams, always keeping me in the loop. It was rather unfortunate that my experience was mid-way between their junior role and senior role for this job. However, I will always be thankful for the transparency they showed and the earnest efforts of the recruiter to find an opportunity that matched my skills and to keep me in the loop at all times. Few companies seem to take candidate experience as seriously as Revolut!
Had an initial video call which lasted around 30/40 minutes.
Never got a message despite messaging the person I spoke to, to give any feedback or tell me why I was not right for the role. You expect at least telling you within over a month the situation.
Always think employers who don’t value prospective employees are not somewhere positive to work.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Revolut (Londres, Inglaterra) in Dec 2018
Interview
Telephone interview followed up with an exceptionally long set of home tasks that took a week to complete. The process was very laborious and required a very broad selection of knowledge and skills.
