New Relic's interview process was insanely thoughtful, and it was clear that the NR team deeply cares about the interviewees, the process, and finding good fits all around. I appreciated the efficiency of first speaking with a recruiter, then having a 1:1 phone screen with a team engineering manager before coming in for an interview. I feel like this helped ensure an initial good fit for both the team, the company, and myself.

The in-person interview was equally efficient and thoughtful. I again met with the engineering manager to go over the role and make sure it was something I was interested in. Next, I paired with the team lead; then I went over technical questions with another team member; finally, I went over soft-skill questions with another team member.

Interviewing directly with the team was huge in determining team fit from both the team perspective and my personal perspective. I loved the opportunity to meet 1:1 with the people I would be working with, and the whole interview process was insanely fun and definitely the best interview experience I've ever had.

I was asked to speak about a coding project that I was passionate about or proud of. I was also asked questions about HTTP, such as tracking down errors in a request and tracing calls.
