Colloquio
The tech challenge and behavior interviews were both interesting exercises but both interviewers seemed to think they were holding up gauntlets for a prize rather than having a conversation with an equal. The behavior one especially went 15 mins longer than scheduled and most of the questioning by the interviewer, leaving hardly any time for them to answer my questions. But what really irked me was the guy conducting the interview by connecting through a tv in a meeting room, while he sat on the far end. He could clearly observe me in minute detail while it was pretty hard vice versa. Talk about power plays.

Domanda 1
Standard questions about current and past job experiences
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.
