Sample interview questions
How would you approach a Mandarin-speaking restaurant owner who is interested in Toast but hesitant to change their current system?

I would begin with discovery in Mandarin to understand their current workflow, pain points, and goals. I would then connect the most relevant Toast capabilities to measurable outcomes, address migration concerns clearly, and use a tailored demonstration to build confidence before agreeing on next steps.

Describe how you manage a sales pipeline with both inbound leads and referral-generated opportunities.

I qualify opportunities using defined criteria, prioritize them by urgency and fit, and maintain accurate CRM records for every interaction and next step. I create a consistent follow-up cadence for inbound leads while reserving time for referral outreach and pipeline development.

How do you ensure that a product demonstration is relevant to a restaurant customer?

I use the discovery conversation to identify operational challenges, decision makers, and success metrics before the demo. During the session, I focus on the workflows that matter most to that restaurant, confirm understanding throughout, and finish with an agreed action plan.

Tell us about a time you handled a difficult pricing or contract negotiation.

I would prepare by understanding the customer's business priorities, the value delivered, and acceptable deal parameters. During the discussion, I would clarify objections, reinforce value rather than immediately discounting, and seek a mutually beneficial structure while documenting commitments accurately.

How would you coordinate with onboarding after closing a sale?

I would provide a complete handoff covering the customer's goals, stakeholders, agreed solution, timeline, and any risks or commitments made during the sales process. I would introduce the customer to the onboarding team and remain available to ensure expectations are aligned.
