Technical Lead/Senior Developer Interview Experience - Kraków, Poland

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

First call with HR discussed my experience. It was very fast, and I had the impression that HR was rushing it. I'm not sure why, as we booked a full 45 minutes and only spent 30. There weren't any direct technical questions from HR; however, they tried to make some questionable statements to see my reaction. For example: "TDD is speeding up the dev process." No surprises overall at this stage.

Second call was with a shy and not very talkative developer. It was a live coding interview, and I had an overall pleasant and welcoming experience. Again, no surprises; however, the feedback was not very adequate and contained subjective assessment statements rather than facts. Overall, the interview was okay, but the feedback was not.

Suggestions to Revolut HRs:

  • Use facts, not judgments, in feedback.
  • Train your interviewers for more ecological ways of communication.
  • Change the HR template. "We encourage you to apply for ... openings ... that are more relevant to your background ..." is disrespectful.
