Sample interview questionsHow would you approach reviewing a new marketing campaign that includes performance claims and customer testimonials?I would first identify the audience, channels, jurisdictions, and specific express or implied claims. I would verify that objective claims have appropriate substantiation, confirm that testimonials reflect typical results or include suitable disclosures, and assess applicable consumer-protection and endorsement rules. I would then provide practical, prioritized revisions that preserve the campaign objective while reducing legal risk.

Describe how you would partner with a product team during the development of a new hardware offering.

I would engage early to understand the product’s functionality, intended users, distribution model, data flows, and launch timeline. I would identify applicable requirements such as labeling, certifications, consumer disclosures, privacy obligations, and marketing constraints, then track open items through launch. My goal would be to provide timely, actionable advice rather than only raising issues late in the process.

What factors would you consider before sending a trademark cease-and-desist letter?

I would assess Toast’s trademark rights, the similarity of the marks, relatedness of the goods or services, evidence of actual confusion, the other party’s use, and the relevant jurisdiction. I would also consider business impact, reputational concerns, available remedies, and whether a graduated enforcement approach is appropriate. The communication should accurately state our position, preserve rights, and seek an efficient resolution.

How do you explain a complex legal requirement to non-legal stakeholders?

I begin with the business decision at hand and explain the legal issue in plain language, including the practical consequences and level of risk. I avoid unnecessary legal jargon and present clear options with recommended next steps. I also confirm shared understanding and document key guidance so teams can apply it consistently.

How would you manage several legal review requests with competing deadlines?

I would triage requests based on legal exposure, customer impact, launch timing, and whether the matter is reversible. I would communicate early about priorities, dependencies, and realistic turnaround times, while using templates and checklists for recurring reviews. For issues outside my authority or expertise, I would escalate promptly with a concise summary and proposed path forward.
