This is a YouTube video titled "Revolut doesn't care about your CV" containing a monologue or single-speaker commentary recorded on June 7, 2025. The speaker discusses Revolut's hiring philosophy, emphasizing the value of raw intellect and a strong drive to build and solve problems over years of professional experience or traditional credentials.
Revolut values way more raw intellect and this unquenched hunger to build things rather than experience. Unfortunately, professionals with a lot of years of experience from established companies, they don't have this strong urge to change status quo. They still take a lot of time to ramp up. Sometimes they also take time to adapt to new culture. or worse, they just rest on their laurels. That's why even if a candidate doesn't have a lot of years of experience, but they love building things, they worked with engineers, these kind of people, they really thrive at Revolut. They actually attack a specific problem. They have a sense of what can cause customer pain and they are very fast moving to solve it quickly. That's how they get appreciation from everyone around because they solve some specific problem and that's how they grow in the company.
