The interview process it self was quite lengthy, many interviews, but it was also very thorough and gave me an opportunity to meet many different people across the organisation. That process helped me make a decision and to accept the offer I received. The whole interview process was very professional and it was divided into phone, online (video), and on site interviews. For the engineering position an IQ test (pattern recognition) and coding tests were conducted, all which should be easy to pass for an average engineer. I do have mixed feelings about conducting IQ tests during an interview process, I don't personally mind them. But there are studies done, suggesting that there is no direct correlation between intelligence , analytical and logical think process. Klarna might actually miss out on good candidates by using IQ tests. I'm also impressed by Klarna's recruiter, if all of them are as talented as the person I interacted with that would be awesome.

Screening interview, then Cultural Fit in parallel with a case interview, they added a technical interview more connected to system design, then meeting other L4.5s, and offer after a few weeks. The interviews were rushed and I felt interviewers checking boxes instead of trying to establish a meaningful connection
