Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Revolut
Entrevista
1. recruiter screening
2. live coding (practical stuff) in the language you will be working in. Implement a simple cache + write unit tests.
3. basic system design. Implement a feature: client-server-db
4. standard behavioral interview. STAR formart
Process is OK but they don't ask you for availability to schedule a meeting. If you ask to reschedule - the recruiter straight up ignores you.
The pre-onboarding process is horrenderious and disorganized. You have to wait multiple days to get answers to basic questions that should be written in a FAQ somewhere. Virtually no support from their side.
All of the above makes you not want to join the company if that's how they treat you even before you join. I now understand why people avoid Revolut like a plague.

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.
