Klarna's ideal candidates are 'disrupters.' They are looking for unconventional innovators who are ready to pursue a career path forward, doing what they do best and what they love to do. Most of Klarna's Klarnauts frequently change roles within their first few years on the job. After researching their website and company, their unconventional work model, and what your career could look like with them, consider how you would map your career plan accordingly. Just like you'd customize your cover letter and resume to Klarna, customize your career plan as well. Leave no stone unturned, and detail how you and Klarna can go farther together.

"I would love to exponentially expand my skills, be trusted with more responsibility, and have the option to explore working in another international Klarna location in the next five years. I recognize that career growth within Klarna is not linear and often not what one would expect. But I would love to fine-tune my career, keep learning, try out a few positions within the company, and keep advancing my career development goals."
