Product Manager Interview Experience
Interview process
This was a problem-solving round of about 35 minutes with a product owner. At the start he explained the format: the case is specific to Revolut, no prior Revolut knowledge is needed, and the most important thing is to ask clarifying questions. The case: to grow Revolut for Business revenue over 12 months while at least keeping the current gross profit margin. He gave data when I asked (revenue by country, by segment and by revenue source) and said openly when he didn’t have something, asking me to make assumptions. At the end I had to give a short update. What went well: the atmosphere was relaxed and my questions got useful answers. What didn’t go well: I listed many levers without sizing gap or checking each idea against the margin constraint

Interview tips
Ask clarifying questions early and keep asking: the interviewer wants this and gives numbers when you ask. Start with the revenue formula and ask how the business makes money, which segments and markets it has. Size the target in numbers and give each lever a rough contribution. Keep every constraint from the prompt in mind (for me it was the gross margin) and check each idea against it. If data isn’t available, state an assumption out loud and move on. Leave time for a short final recommendation with priorities, because you are asked to brief an executive at the end.
Company culture
The interviewer was friendly, relaxed and candid. After the case he talked openly about the business. He treated the case as a conversation, answered questions and said when he didn’t have the data. No red flags: the process felt transparent and supportive.
