      Software Engineer Interview

      17 Feb 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Klarna

      Interview

      Interviewed for a mid-level Software Engineer position. Interview was on an easy side, interviewers were nice. What did surprise me was the recruiters. First, my recruiter changed in the middle of the process. The new recruiter made some weird comment about the other recruiter, who seems to have left the company. The new recruiter also amde some unprofessional gender related comments, which made me doubt the culture all together, given the person was not new to the company and quite senior as well. I passed all the interviews, and was congratulated on a successful completion of the process. Did not receive an offer right away as they told me they did not have a fitting position for me at the time. But that in a month or two many new positions will be opened up and I will be the first in line for those. And indeed, I saw a bunch if new positions posted online in a month or so, but I myself was never contacted for those. Extremely disorganised and messy, not a good experience.

      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.

      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.
