It was very in depth and required more preparation than the role is worth based on the pay. There were 4 stages and included a really detailed presentation that required hours of preparation and research which is extremely absurd for a role that only pays a 70k (MAXIMUM) base. Without counting the time I spent preparing for interviews, I spent over 4 hours in interviews—over half a workday!
These guys have an inflated ego for thinking their company is that great to work for when they're underpaying employees and only have a small marketshare in an extremely competitive market where there are significantly more cost effective solutions. The VP I met with in my final round is what led me to not want to work there. He had an air about him that was incredibly off-putting. It felt like he was only interviewing with me as a favor and I was lucky to get the time of day from him. No thanks!

Extremely tedious. Made it to the final interview and the person who would have been my boss was extremely robotic and had zero hospitality experience. It was so incredibly off putting and surprising that it completely threw me off my game.

Wanted me to answer how I would approach a business owner, and the correct answer was to follow their script. As someone who approached hospitality owners all day every day, especially in LA, that's about the worst thing you can do.

The process was so quick. Jasmine my recruiter walked me step by step and was always communicating with me. The interview and presentation was not easy but so satisfying when I got an offer. Thank you team!

Very odd interview process. I applied for the job online and received an automated email from the recruiter to schedule a time for the first interview. The earliest availability was over 3 weeks away, which seemed odd to me. I emailed the recruiter to confirm that it was the earliest availability, and he never responded. Fast forward 3 weeks to the interview... the recruiter was extremely cold and seemed a bit unprepared for our call. At the end of the call, the recruiter said he would follow up with me to let me know if I made it to the next round. I sent a follow up email thanking the recruiter for his time later that afternoon (after 5:00pm) and received an OOO message stating that he would be gone for the next 2 weeks?? Why would they schedule an interview 3 weeks in advance, the day before the recruiter is going on vacation??? I didn't end up getting another interview, but I don't think I had a fair chance based on the scheduling alone. I ended up following up with his manager because I wanted to get some feedback. She was quick to respond and nice, but overall I got a bad taste in my mouth about Toast based on the interview process.

They mostly asked about previous experience and were looking for specific situational examples.
