There are five rounds to this interview. This company thinks they are Google. It is quite turn off to be honest. If you are always going to hire experienced candidates the vacancy will always be open. I have seen this job ad for the last 2 years. Good luck finding a suitable candidate. Stop setting the bar so high.

Question 1
Have you ever undertaken a complex investigation? The interview was very one-sided. HR asked, candidate answers. What financial crime legislation are you familiar with? What financial crime cases are you currently aware of? What is your experience with data? HR explained the role is data focused. Why do you want to work at Revolut?
