I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Klarna (Stockholm, Stockholm) in Apr 2024
Interview
Initial interview with recruiter who was quite arrogant with an attitude. After that, I did a logic test. Then, I was supposed to do coding, system architecture and behavioural test (three separate interviews). On coding, no one showed up in the interview so I had the option the reschedule it either a week later or 4 weeks later. It was so unprofessional. At the end, I did not pass coding test.

Interview
Initial recruiter call, abstract, and reasoning test. | did not really understand what is their aim with this as I completed this in a good way! And got rejected for a generic reason, But, then again I looked at the company going downhill. Also, the recruiter rebooked me for a second interview for a different position and joined 10 minutes late to tell me Sorry you need to wait 6 months! You ain't google fellas! Stop acting like it!
