There were 3 steps:
1. an online test about using and understanding algorithms- this is a pretty easy step
2. a pair programming session - 4 tasks
this one took 2 hours, 4 tasks to do and explain every step down to the lowest level
the 4 task were to complete the code samples regarding: cache implementation (with race conditions), download resource (if not already in cache), serialisation and lastly uikit (some things regarding autolayout in code and uitablesviews) - this step is the real technical step, it has a medium difficulty but it’s hard because it’s live action
also the guy was really helpful, if you were stuck always here to help, bonus points revolut
3. final step - discussing with one of the heads of mobile engineering - 30 minutes
this one was the mont intimidating, the interviewer had ADHD, always moving and hard to follow
he asked questions about testing, pull requests, code guidelines and hardest things to develop on ui and business
personally this was the hardest interview of all, i felt i lost the position on this step, but thank god I haven’t.

I was contacted on LinkedIn regarding the position, and we scheduled an interview. It turned out to be a strange experience—I could tell from the start that I wouldn’t progress, as they were clearly looking for highly passionate, tailored answers. For example, when asked why I wanted to join, giving a general response like seeking a new environment seemed to immediately disqualify candidates—that’s what I realized during the process. (They need someone who exaggerates with his answers)

3 days after submitting my resume, I received an email from a recruiter to schedule a phone call. The link to book the phone call was not working. I replied to her the same day saying the link was broken. No reply from her. The next day I received two emails from Revolut: one with a link to the HackerRank exercise and another 1 minute later saying they wouldn't be moving forward with my application. I sent them another email to the recruiter telling her about these 2 emails and she never replied. So, in summary: I received a broken link to the stage 1 of the hiring process, a working link to the stage 2 of the hiring process and a cancellation of the process. All of these with me doing nothing and no reply from the recruiter. I understand they receive hundreds of resumes, but as they invited me to the initial phone call, they should at least have explained the confusion with the other 2 emails.

HacherRank questions: 3 Qs with mid difficulty and a little bit more than 1h to solve them. My advice: read the Cracking the code interview book and be prepared to solve mid difficulty questions in 20min each.
Topics involved in the questions: grids and hash maps.
