Does Klarna still do the IQ test as part of their hiring process?

Yes, sadly a quite common part in too many recruitment processes here in Sweden.

My first job at a consulting company out of uni I had to to an IQ test that could also indicate if I had rabies.

It had questions like "are you afraid of water", "have you showered in the last three weeks", "have you felt more aggressive lately"...
