Interview
I am writing to share my feedback on the interview process for the Senior Software Engineer position. While I have always admired Revolut’s products, I found the interview process to be quite disheartening.
I successfully passed all the stages, including the “Team Fit” interview. However, despite receiving positive feedback at each stage, I did not receive any response after the final interview. I reached out to the recruiter multiple times but was met with silence. This lack of communication was both unexpected and frustrating. This is something I cannot understand since they have lots of open positions...
The interview process itself was manageable with adequate preparation, though it did cover some less familiar topics. However, the overall experience was marred by the poor follow-up and communication.
In summary, while Revolut’s products are impressive, the interview process needs significant improvement. I would advise fellow software engineers to consider this aspect carefully before applying, as it can lead to a considerable waste of time.

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.

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.

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
