Entretien
I applied for the senior product designer in revolut in October 2019 and I passed 2 rounds design interviews and passed the design home task!
But finally failed in the last interview with a product owner! The rejected reason was super ridiculous. He thought I don’t have experience work with developers. I totally have no idea how he came out the conclusion. If things like that, I couldn't have been working in this field for so many years, and how I made so many designs I've done launched online?
They confirmed and recognized my UI and UX ability but used a ridiculous reason to reject me . So I really question the professionalism and fairness in making the final decision of my application, or maybe it was the decision just from that PO. He doesn't like me, kept challenging me during the interview. He misunderstood what I said then I kept explaining to him. Finally, he used a totally untrue thing to reject me.
I passed all the design reviews and the home task which took me a lot of time. Then a not professional PO rejected me, he is not even a designer. I’m so disappointed at Revolut and their interview policy.
An exhausting and overly bureaucratic hiring process that dismisses candidates over a take-home assignment, even when they have a solid portfolio of real-world impact and results. You have to work for them (because of course they use this as reference to do their work), you have only 5 BUSINESS days to elaborate the home assignment but if you’re already working for another company, good look trying to get time to do that.
This was by far the worst interview experience of my entire career. There were lots of red flags, and even inexplicable rude behavior. I've never felt so disrespected during an interview process.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Questions about experience, expectations, past roles, and specific projects.
One aspect I genuinely appreciated was the clarity of communication throughout. The explanations of each stage, what to expect, what you were looking for, and the additional tips provided were thoughtful and well structured. It made the process feel organized and respectful of candidates’ time.
The experience would be significantly strengthened by including specific feedback following each stage. When candidates invest time and effort, thoughtful feedback is a meaningful and professional return on that effort. It supports growth and reflects positively on the company’s hiring standards. They do share feedback but the candidates need to ask for it specifically.
