J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Revolut (Madrid) en nov. 2025
Entretien
I made 2 interviews: screening with a recruiter and a live coding one, with Leetcode like exercises without any AI coding assistant. In the coding one they required a very deep knowledge of Python libraries, some of them not common at all in the day to day of a data scientist

Entretien
Awful. Red flags for a toxic work culture. I met 3 interviewers, all were exhausted. God knows what they were building. Completely drained and engrossed into their own world, asking theoritical to most difficult questions, kind of to reject you. And even if you pass, there is not a good vibe. They pay a penny and expect you to a coder, Ml researcher and Deep learning Gen AI architect working at OpenAI or Google Deepmind ! Shame on your process. No idea it was coming.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
1st round: medium level data manipulation, wrangling 2nd round: probability, maths based coding, complex algorithm questions. 3rd round: Extremely vague system design. I was given computer vision based system design which I did 5 years back.
