Designed to support great conversations, not decide them.
Throughout the hiring process, our goal is to get to know you. We use AI tools to support our recruiters and interviewers with tasks like note-taking, summarization, and documentation to ensure they can be fully focused on your conversation. While this technology will help us provide exceptional candidate experiences, all final hiring decisions are made by people.
At Toast, we use AI thoughtfully and transparently—to support our teams and create a better candidate experience, not to replace human judgment.
