J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Klarna (Stockholm, )
Entretien
First, recruiter talks about the job and followed by a offline coding challenge (Passed).
Then a logic test (Passed).
Then skill test (2 people casually discus about how a project can be designed). They will send you the code prior 24 hours to get ready and setup. They wanted me to design the infra structure, but they asked me to explain the components. Probably i am just not qualified to understand that.
Then a behavioral test, where they ask questions related to their leadership values. You either have to make a story, or lucky if you experienced one. Bur hard to tell what they take from the story.
I lost in the behavioral test with real life story. Solving problem based on your timed decision may not be fancy for them.
Research a lot, come up with a pleasant story. (Sorry, dont know what they are looking for exactly)
it consisted of 3 parts, HR, technical, behavioural. The technical part was a leetcode hard problem but they did not expect a hard solution. The behavioural was related to leadership principles similar to most companies.
J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Klarna (Paris) en oct. 2025
Entretien
I had a second experience with Klarna. After the ghosting of last year, Klarna reach out again for a SWE position. The same happened. After the first discussion, I have been told again to book a slot for the second round. And then... no news from anyone.
Second ghosting. Klarna has a terrible HR process and policy.
I feel like I dodge a bullet here. The work environment might be pretty toxic if it is aligned with the HR practices.
