      Software Engineer Interview

      Jul 25, 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Revolut

      Interview

      I only got to the first stage. I was asked to live code an URL shortener. This would have been easy to do, if it weren't for the fact that the entire code had to be done following TDD. This was never mentioned, neither in the screening nor in the job description. I am quite rusty with TDD so naturally I failed the test. However, it is quite disappointing that a company of this size would not give a clear explanation of what to expect. Particularly, if you are using a technique that is not common and you expect candidates to be acquainted with it.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Code an URL shortener using test driven development.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Revolut (Kraków)

      Interview

      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.

      Question 1

      About databases, indexes and concurrency.

      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

      I interviewed at Revolut

      Question 1

      Design Revolut Stays. Hotel info comes from an external partner. Bookings must be done through the external partner as well.
