New Relic application questions — all 14, word for word
New Relic hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 14 questions, 12 of them required. 4 of them are required, fixed-choice questions about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
83 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in sales and engineering. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.
What New Relic has open
These are the roles the form was read from, as New Relic titles them, in Bangalore, India, Tokyo, Japan, Hyderabad, India, Atlanta, Georgia, USA:

12 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 212 employers measured ask (median: 13), the least standard being “Do you now or will you in the future require sponsorship for or assistance with an employment visa (e.g. F-1, H-1B, TN, E-3, or other non-immigrant visa category) for this role?”.
The eligibility questions
These are required, and answered from a fixed list rather than in your own words: work authorisation, visa sponsorship or security clearance. Employers often use questions like these to filter applications automatically, but Greenhouse's public data does not say whether New Relic does — so treat them as the answers most likely to matter, not as a verdict. Answer them honestly either way.

Before you apply
Have the answers to the required questions ready before you open the form — New Relic's asks for 12 of them, and Greenhouse does not save a partial application by default. Settle the eligibility questions first — they are the ones with no room to elaborate, so knowing your answer before you start tells you whether the rest of the form is worth your time.
