Colloquio
Don't waste your time.
First they give you an IQ test, if you pass it you also get a task in your preferred programming language.
What I got as a feedback for being rejected:
- 'Code formatting and spaces is bad' - (you are forced to use a web interface which does not format the code). Additionally its 2019 and usually code is formatted automatically.
- 'Two of the solutions were copied and modified from Google' - You are not notified that you should not use Google and reinvent the wheel, and tasks are pretty basic, so chances are you will end up 'copying the solution'.
it consisted of 3 parts, HR, technical, behavioural. The technical part was a leetcode hard problem but they did not expect a hard solution. The behavioural was related to leadership principles similar to most companies.

Colloquio
I had a second experience with Klarna. After the ghosting of last year, Klarna reach out again for a SWE position. The same happened. After the first discussion, I have been told again to book a slot for the second round. And then... no news from anyone.
Second ghosting. Klarna has a terrible HR process and policy.
I feel like I dodge a bullet here. The work environment might be pretty toxic if it is aligned with the HR practices.
