Revolut published an internal hiring playbook, saying it reviewed more than 1 million applications last year to fill roughly 1,000 roles, implying an acceptance rate near 0.1%. according to BeInCrypto, the London fintech says it grew from 100 employees in 2017 to more than 12,000 in 2025 and rebuilt its recruitment process to maintain pace.
The blueprint comes from QuantumLight, the quantitative venture firm founded by Revolut CEO Nik Storonsky, first published in 2025 alongside a $250 million debut fund. Revolut’s valuation rose from $45 billion in 2024 to $75 billion in a November sale; it posted a record $2.3 billion annual profit in 2025 and has expanded, including a $116 million France push backed by President Emmanuel Macron.
