      Software Engineer - Javascript Interview

      13 Nov 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Milan
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Klarna (Milan) in Oct 2020

      Interview

      After a nice chat with their technical recruiter I've done an very easy coding test with three simple coding exercises then I was asked to do a 15minutes logic test, mensa style. It was weird but fun, not a big deal. After that I've done a personality/career interview with a couple of nice guys from the Milan office followed by a problem solving interview. They both were very good experiences and I enjoyed them. A few days later I was invited for an architectural interview and a values/cultural fit assessment. The architectural one was very interesting and the conversation was lovely, the last one instead was terrible. The interviewer was clearly not interested and annoyed for some reason. He was asking questions with a very negative attitude and a little bit of arrogance from his "I'm a serial entrepreneur" introduction. A few days later the recruiter called me to tell me that they do not want to give me an offer even if the engineering part was very strong, they were not able to evaluate my cultural fit. No big deal, it's part of the game, and I've given her my feedback on the interview process. They are aware that the Milan office is new and it's coming from an acquisition, so the culture is not completely aligned with the corporate one and they are working on it. I'm kind of happy that I did not received an offer, because the last manager has given me a very negative impression and I do not want to work with or for him.

      Software Engineer - Javascript Interview

      19 Jun 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Stockholm, Stockholm
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      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.

      Question 1

      What do you do if you have to turn down a client's request? What does React memo do? Find the memory leak in the code.

      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!
