Software Engineer, Functional Programming Interview Experience - Stockholm, Sweden
Process
The interview process consisted of 5 or 6 interviews.
There was one technical coding interview based on a small exercise that you first solve at your own pace. Then, on-site, the interviewer asked me to extend and explain my thought process.
The other interviews were behavioural and systems design. They expect you to be familiar with the Klarna principles (which they tell you beforehand to check), and it was in a relaxed environment.
The systems design interview was also fun and made without any criticism or similar. You are one more engineer trying to solve the problem with them.
I am really happy with the interviewing process, and it was fun!
