      Software Engineer Interview

      19 Jan 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Klarna

      Interview

      I had applied directly through the website. First round was a 30 mins Skype call with the recruiter, mainly assessing my interests and motivation for joining Klarna. After this, there was a short online test assessing analytical thinking. After a week or so, I got a call back from the recruiter saying that I'll be having a coding homework that I need to submit. The coding test was a business problem in my case and I finished it in a couple of days and sent it back. After evaluation of coding tests in a week, I was informed about two consecutive interviews - one with the project manager and one with a technical team member. These two interviews went for about an hour and a half. Two weeks later, I got a call from the recruiter that after careful consideration and comparison to other candidates who were interviewed, I was not selected. I think the heartening part was that the recruiter made an effort to call back, even after not being selected and not send an automated email.

      Application

      I interviewed at Klarna (Berlin)

      Interview

      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.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Klarna (Paris) in Oct 2025

      Interview

      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.
