Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

There were 3 interviews after the initial conversation about the role.

One with the hiring manager and 2 with the team(s).

The first was somewhat technical, but at a high level. The second was technical with coding. The third was semi-formal about how I work and my thought processes / culture fitment.

Overall, the people at New Relic won me over with their genuine positivity. Many technical interviews feel like you're being harshly judged for not knowing what the interviewer knows. I could tell that before even meeting me, interviewers at New Relic wanted me to succeed, even while fumbling over syntax and forgetting how typing works.

Questions

Typical stuff: high-level architecture, mid-level implementation, workflow, etc.
