I applied online. I interviewed at Toast Inc (Dublin, Dublin) in Aug 2025
Interview
Interview process was decent; tasks were enjoyable to complete albeit used old and near redundant technology.
However the interviewers would ask complex questions in the middle of the task which would take a good amount of time away from the coding challenge..which ultimately ended up being my downfall due to not being able to finish this challenge to their expectations. Quite an unfair process and thoughtless. Unfortunate as I felt like I would be a great fit and had many ideas to improve their processes.
