RevenueCat Interview Questions
& Process

The process was thorough, but I enjoyed it. All interactions were laid-back and friendly, and the interviewers seemed genuinely interested in my background and skills. It's clear that they prioritize culture fit, and the questions reflected that. The pace was good; the initial response to my application was a bit slow, but given the small size of the recruiting team, that's understandable. After that, I received feedback within 24-36 hours of each call. I was also given detailed information upfront about what to expect. It was particularly impressive that RevenueCat compensates candidates for their time on the take-home task; this kind of consideration is rare nowadays and really helps build goodwill.

While I appreciated the unique questions as part of their application process, it was disappointing to receive an automated rejection within 24 hours of submitting my answers. I dedicated an entire day to carefully researching their company and potential partners to ensure they were compatible with RevenueCat's business (not written with AI, as they specifically requested), but the swift rejection makes me wonder if they were even read. I understand that not every candidate is a fit, but with such a demanding application process, it would've been nice to have the effort requested at least be reciprocated with a human answer. Still, I wish them all the best with finding their ideal candidate.

The whole interview process was super quick and easy, wrapped up in about three weeks. Setting up the interviews was a breeze because they had a lot of open slots. I went through a few stages: first, I chatted with an Engineering Manager, then a technical screen. After that, there was an interview loop that dug into system design, testing/debugging, and also checked if I'd be a good culture fit. The last step was a final interview with one of the co-founders. Honestly, it was the best interview I've ever done.

So Revenue Cat's interview process was prob one of the best I've had, it was super thorough and you could tell they really wanted to make sure it was a good fit for everyone. Right from the start, they laid out the plan: Interview with the Hiring Manager, then a Business Case, after that, Panel interviews with different team folks (one panel was to go over the business case itself), then a Cultural interview, and finally the Founder's interview before an offer. It was a bit of a long haul, but they were upfront about the timing, which was great. They really take their time to make sure they're hiring the right people and that they'll mesh well with the team. Despite the length, the whole team made me feel really welcome.
