Several stage interviews. First is a basic HR interview. Then a practical interview. Finally a tech theory interview with some practical elements. You need a computer with an IDE installed and a base project to start coding in.

Asked about relational database theory. E.G. transaction locking.
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.
HR interview, coding interview, then system design interview. No specific feedback from them. I really thought I went well and answered everything at least reasonably, but didn't get an offer.

Design Revolut Stays. Hotel info comes from an external partner. Bookings must be done through the external partner as well.
Recruiter round, they’re basically looking for buzz words. They asked for my experiences in handling different scenarios, then other db and concurrent related questions . Overall it was straightforward, just go through other’s experiences here and you should be covered
