Revolut Interview Questions

Shuly A. - "Clarifying questions: How the hiring funnel looks like, where are the main drop offs, what are the longest phases, what systems we have in place for reminders and notifications. What should be the goal (double conversion, reduce time to hire) Offered some solutions, analysed them according to ICE framework, highlighter risks linked to solution. The last question was to pitch my suggested path to management."See full answer

Alister S. - "Clarify the problem. Ask lots of questions to uncover the root cause of the problem. This could be related to internal factors like releasing buggy updates or external factors like market trends, infrastructure, regulation etc etc. Establish where in the user journey the problem might be happening, if it's happening for a subset of users or for everyone e.g. on iOS platform etc etc, what time period has the problem occurred? Gradually or suddenly? How is the metric (in this case revenue)"See full answer

Alister S. - "Clarify understanding of the problem space. What does success look like? How is it measured? Platform specific? Market specific? Time period? Business goals? Then perform a funnel analysis to understand user journey and look for problems or opportunities. Choose a user segment to focus on. Identify different user segments and prioritise one. Summarise the goal of the user and the friction point. Brainstorm solutions. Come up with a number of rough solutions. Balance the business n"See full answer

S G. - "Clarification questions: How are these metrics calculated? Get context on why these metrics are important? Are we looking at any specific role? Benchmarking: What is the current time to hire? How does this compare to competitors? Do we have a desired goal/target for these metrics? Problem Solving: I began by analyzing the various steps in the hiring process and the number of days taken at each stage. Soon realised that the bulk of the time is taken in a few steps (80/20). Drilled down further"See full answer

Gabe M. - "My stab at this (feedback welcome): Total distance for last car 500 meters: Assuming mostly standard cars, average car length + gap = 5 meters. Acceleration time total 505 seconds: first car reacts slowest, accelerate in 10 seconds. Every other car needs 5 seconds (can see ahead). Takes 90 seconds to cover 500m: to cover 500m that means 90 seconds (20kph = 10km in 30min = 1km in 3min = 500m in 1.5m) A bit under 10 minutes = 90s + 505s. Probably a bit less as last car"See full answer

Alibi M. - "I would answer this question using MECE framework: Profit = Revenue - Costs. Revenue = # customers * price In case of the trading platform, this could be translated into avg. trading activity per user * avg. commission rate . Ask if there has been any recent change to Active users or their trading activities. Similarly, ask if the commission rate has been changed recently. Based on this information, you can then identify the problem and get to the root cause of this. Similarly with Costs. "See full answer

Jaison E. - "I broke down my answer into Understanding the goal, investigating the current state and its challenges, prioritizing opportunities, brainstorming solutions, and selecting solutions. To understand the goal and current state, I asked questions about the onboarding funnel and the conversion percentages. They have clear metrics to share, with the specific conversion rates for each stage. I then identified the subscription screen in the flow as one of the key opportunities, as most of the drop happ"See full answer

Pathworks P. - "To answer this, I will focus my efforts on explaining the most common type of API used in most modern software development applications - the REST API. For the purpose of simplicity, I will also keep the topics of Authorization and Authentication out of the mix. In essence, an API is a group of logic that takes in a specific set of inputs and responds with a specific set of outputs. This is analogous to going to a drive-thru and placing an order for a meal. When you give an API a bunch of"See full answer
