I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Revolut (London, England) in Oct 2024
Interview
Writing this review specifically about the problem solving interview (and doing so before I hear whether I've been successful or not, to avoid bias)
The stage consists of a 45 minute conversation which includes very brief intros at the start and Q&A at the end, but is focused on 35/40 minutes of a case study in the middle
The case study itself is ok. The problem will be general enough that you don't need to know about Revolut as a business, you just need to apply some problem solving thought processes, show an ability to identify the problem, think through solutions (pros/cons) and recommend a preferred approach. The interviewer will help funnel you down the right path since there are always multiple ways of looking at things.
I actually got two problems in one - both related to the recruitment process but two different parts of the process to solve for. I didn't expect that but it was still a manageable degree of complexity
The main gripe I had coming away from it was that my interviewer was quite brisk, to put it politely. No time is wasted on relationship building or helping you to feel at ease. I'm grown up enough to get over that and focus on the task anyway, but I came away from the interview wondering whether thats the sort of person I really want to work with
I also asked about culture at the end, e.g. "what makes people like working at Revolut and what makes them stay" and the answer was basically money. I'm sure we all like money but that answer, together with very impersonal tone of the interview was quite jarring for me
Overall, quite a negative experience. I wanted to write this review so that others are not so surprised if they encounter the same issues

Interview
Talent team reached out. Screening call arranged with the screener. 1 hour interview conducted. Result was shared couple of days later. Asked for feedback and received. Eventhough it was not accurate or made any sense.
The interview process consists of four rounds: an HR screening, a criteria-based assessment test, an interview with the Line Manager, and a final discussion with the Team Lead, all for a London-based role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Experience in creating strategies with ambiguities
Hr Screening - Problem Solving - Home Task - 2 other fit ones I think. The process is clear and fast, the interviewers are mean, prepare yourself for this. Everyone I know who has applied has had a horrible experience.
