I was contacted by a recruiter, Nick. The process was excellent and super smooth overall. Nick helped me with the whole process, providing understanding and what to anticipate, which was a good heads-up.

The interview rounds were also quite organized. They care a lot about unit tests, which was prominent from the first coding round itself. This says a lot about the kind of work and what the company values, including good coding practices.

Overall, I had one initial coding round of 2.5 hours, which included two problem statements with tests to be written. Then, there were B1 and B2 rounds, both including technical and one non-technical interview.

I also got an opportunity to talk with the team and get more clarification on other questions. B2 was a little long with fewer breaks than B1. However, I would suggest asking your interviewer for a short 5-minute break if you need one; they were quite helpful.

They also scheduled a couple of other calls for me to understand the immigration and visa process and what to anticipate there, which was super helpful.

Overall, it was a positive experience for the whole interview process. Sadly, I couldn't go forward with the offer since I received another one from a different company that seemed a better fit for what I'm currently looking for. But Klarna definitely came so, so, so close!

An interview process speaks volumes about a company, and you folks really rocked it!

Questions around Klarna principles: leadership, customer obsession, etc.
