Klarna Project Manager interview questions

4 separate interviews 2 general 1 case 1 team fit. 1st 2 interviews will narrow you down to a couple of teams . The case study is on a team by team basis where you are asked to solve a similar problem than the team facing it

After investing several hours in vaguely defined case study and even more time in 6 calls including 8 different senior team members of Klarna my impression is as follows: - the interview process is unguided, unclear and often time wasting as for the candidate so for the company. - the logical test is especially wasteful, it can be considered as disrespectful even for someone with 10+ years of industry experience. - the recruiting is not a priority: neither for the HR nor for the interviewers. If you have any questions regarding the interview process or assignment, you won’t receive any meaningful response. - you can meet some really interesting and smart people during the journey but most of interviewers I met seemed to be bored from the beginning on. They are interviewing you because they have been told to, not because they are interested in finding a good talent to join the company. - for some reason the company tries to position itself as a new Facebook or Google of the banking/payment industry but in the same time challenging the status quo or even asking questions is not appreciated. - My impression of the company culture: when you are told to jump the only allowed question is „how high?“.
