Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Nordea Bank.
Software Engineer
The interview process included personal questions like 'Tell me about yourself,' 'What are your strengths?', and 'What are your weaknesses, and why?'. There was also a request to highlight a project, detailing what you did and learned. Technical questions covered topics such as a specific financial instrument, the impact of increasing inflation, and performing an inner outer merge in Python.
- Could you introduce yourself?
- What are your key strengths?
- Could you elaborate on your weaknesses and the reasons behind them?
Senior Software Engineer
It was a really easy interview process, no live coding or anything tough. Way easier than most companies. The interviewers were nice, the questions were good, and overall it was a supportive, relaxed, and positive vibe from start to finish. Felt like a good experience.
- Can you tell me about basic Java?
- What do you know about OOP?
- Explain SOLID principles.
Software Developer
The interview process included an initial online chat with the scrum master of the team, focusing on work experience rather than technical skills. This was followed by an online technical interview with two interviewers, covering general questions about multi-threading and design patterns. In between the second and third rounds, candidates had to complete online programming and math tasks, along with personality questions. The final round was an onsite interview with the manager, which also involved HR for personality testing.
- Can you introduce the projects you have worked on previously?
