I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Klarna (Berlín) in Jun 2020
Interview
- Logic test
- 3 coding challenges as a home assignment
- Tech interview - some general questions and a coding challenge
- Cultural fit interview - some questions about background, managing experience, goals etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions in the tech interview were superficial, e.g. how to split a service into several microservices. A coding challenge in the tech interview was very abstract without proper explanation and much help from the interviewer.

Interview
The process involves several stages. The first is an online logic test to evaluate your pattern recognition skills. Subsequently, HR will invite you to a remote online meeting so they can get to know you better. They do not hire for a specific team/role and will instead see if you match with any of their teams.

Question 1
1. What do you know about Klarna
2. You experience.
A few steps with HR. Then 3 different technical steps:
- Challenge to complete at home
- Live coding
- System Design
The system design interview was the longest, about 2 hours. The idea was discussing how to implement a new feature on a website.

I applied online. I interviewed at Klarna (Milán) in Oct 2024
Interview
Il contatto delle risorse umane mi ha spiegato tutto del processo in anticipo, affinché mi fosse chiaro. Dopo averci conosciuti ho partecipato a tre colloqui tecnici da remoto, su: il disegno dei sistemi (system design), la programmazione (live programming) e il comportamento (STAR behavioural interview).
