HR representative: General discussion in relation to the process, discussion of salary and incentives, career ambition. I don't think this is a "gatekeeper" step, so use it to ask about the role, benefits etc. Home assignment: Solve a KYC issue that Revolut experienced - I used Excel, PowerQuery and PPT. Google is your friend here. Case Study: A product is not experiencing the level of adoption Revolut hoped for - perform a root cause analysis and come up with solutions for how it could be addressed. This is consulting case prep 101. Case Study: Revolut want to expand to a new country / market - should they and how should they? This is consulting case prep 101. Bar Raiser: - Lots of focus on tangible performance objectives and KPIs - i.e. measures of success. - A big focus on what you have personally delivered / contributed - Deep enquiry into whether you can hack it at Revolut General: - What is the most challenging problem you have solved? Be really specific and choose a hard problem. - Be ready to be interrogated (in a constructive way) as there will be multiple lines of enquiry into stories or topic you are talking about.
