The Problem​

Fintech giant Klarna have been a household name since their founding in 2005. Employing over 4000 employees and expanding throughout Europe. To support their expansion, Klarna needed staffing services that could scale with them. As such, they engaged with our Contract division to find skilled tech freelancers in a pinch.

The Work

Evolution Recruitment Solutions are on hand to provide support whenever a need arises for Klarna on an ongoing basis.

We manage the recruitment process from the start, and through defining key skillsets and priorities from the outset, we are able to provide highly relevant profiles for each role – saving Klarna time and resource.

We also manage the organisation of the interview process: determining candidate availability, ensuring times are convenient for key stakeholders, booking them in and obtaining feedback.

Additionally, to handle the key processes of compliance for hired freelance staff, Evolution provide 4 key areas of payroll and compliance services for Klarna:
  • Standard Compliance Service – a standard service for all our clients to ensure all existing staff are correctly payrolled and compliant through one streamlined service.
  • Appointed Deals – handling the compliance and payroll for any new freelancers that Klarna hire themselves, simplifying the management process all within Evolution’s service offering.
  • Migration Acquisitions – for any company Klarna acquire with freelancer staff, they are migrated to the payroll services we offer. This includes adjusting to handle any compliance requirements based on a freelancer’s location or any other specific requirements that may arise – all resolved and managed through Evolution’s compliance service.
  • Ad-Hoc Audits – to provide Klarna with a comprehensive solution to align their global workforce, we can assess and ensure compliance for any country; updating wherever and whenever Klarna requires.

To engage passive candidates, Evolution have delivered a content-led approach to recruitment. By engaging key stakeholders throughout Klarna and inviting them to join our Evolution Exchange Podcast we have been able to market Klarna, and the leaders within Klarna, as an employer of choice to our community of engaged freelancers across podcast and community channels. Currently we have over 30 podcasts which feature interviews with Klarna staff as guests.

The Outcome

We have and continue to supply Full stack engineering, React and JS software Engineering talent to Klarna as they look to expand into Europe and into other payment solutions.

So far, we have placed 45 tech freelancers at Klarna and hope to see that figure grow.

“Evolution were very helpful when I was searching for new opportunities. They guided me on the things I should cover on my CV and what to look out for on interviewing as well as providing very good feedback on stages of the process. I appreciate the work she put in to help me secure a new role.”
