  • New Relic Software Engineer interview experience: SDE-2 Codility DSANew Relic · Software Engineer · Technical Screen · Jul 2026
    Rejected

    I interviewed for an SDE-2 track and was rejected after the first technical round. It was a DSA-focused coding session on Codility, centered on data structures and algorithms. The interviewer gave a brief introduction and moved straight to the coding questions. The prompts used real-life scenarios rather than only abstract problems. I did not move past that initial technical checkpoint, and it fe…

After about a week of silence, I wanted feedback, even negative feedback, bec…
