Klarna Senior Software Engineer interview questions

A bit of a long process, starting with a short call, then an online Qualified coding test with 3 questions (mainly string parsing) a 15min logical puzzle test over a video call (exercises such as: select the next picture of the progression ), and then two interviews for skills and behavior.

1. Recruiter call (30 Minutes) 2. Logic Test (Abstract figure reasoning test) (18 Minutes) 3. Take home coding test on Qualified.io (2 hours - 8 hours) 4. Problem solving / Algorithm Interview (75 Minutes) 5. Behavior Interview based on Klarna Leadership principles (60 Minutes) 6. System Design Interview (75 Minutes) 7. Behavior Interview based on Klarna Leadership principles with VP (30 Minutes) 8. Final offer (15 Minutes) 9. Team meeting (30 Minutes) (Overall Interview is difficult. They interview you like Google/Facebook and will offer you salary which is of Software Engineer band in the market. Klarna select the team for you i.e. it may be good choice for Klarna business and bad choice for your career. Final offer has mandatory equity component which is not transparent and pretty bad deal. You will loose money with equity instead of any gains. )
