Process

The hiring process is well described here, with an online code challenge followed by a round of on-site interviews.

  • The code challenge was algorithm-based and could be tricky, but solvable.
  • I met a lot of great and smart people I could connect with during the on-site interviews. The environment in Dublin is really good and got me excited. I had a great time in the interview round. I highly recommend anyone to take part in it; it was worth my time for the people I met and how I felt challenged.

Unfortunately, I believe the third-party recruiter did not do a great job and left a not-so-good impression regarding salary negotiations, both before and after the interviews.

My suggestion to Toast is to make the negotiation phase a bit more direct between the company and the candidate and to be open for discussion around specific feedback, especially when a disengaged process with the recruiter did not help. I would be happy to share details of my candidate experience with the company privately if that helps and if I am given a channel.

Apart from this, thanks Toast – it was a great process, and I loved getting to know the company and people in the Dublin office.
