I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Revolut (Aveiro) in Sep 2021
Interview
One interview with the recruiter evaluating you career path. After that request for 1h coding challenge with 2 evaluators seeing your performance.
If this step is passed i believe some more interviews could come.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1 hour code challenge is needed.
They put some pressure in the 1st phase of interview.
HR -> Live coding -> Tech -> System design
Overall the before starting the recruitment process it's worth mastering concurrency, DB(especially PostgresSQL), and transaction management. Company seems to be working mostly with Java, Kotlin and a little with Scala
I got contacted by a recruiter. As a first step, I had a call with another recruiter. He was also asking technical questions, but it felt strange. (A bit like talking to a wall.)
I was rejected with a generic message stating that I was not "aligned with the position". This is weird as it was inbound and based on my profile. No feedback, of course.
Waste of time.
Very kind. The questions weren’t easy, but with knowledge of database configurations, concurrency, locks, and some practical experience, you are able to answer them clearly, confidently, and effectively overall. It was good time.
