I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Presto (Redwood City, CA) in Jul 2018
Interview
After I had sent in my CV on online with respect to this Senior Program Manager role, I was contacted by a recruiting coordinator to set-up an initial discussion over the telephone with a recruiter.
The recruiter was at least 20 minutes late in calling me and she did not apologize for doing so, which looked pretty bad in my view given that most of us take time out of our work to speak.
In any event, our discussion was at a very high-level but I got the impression that the recruiter herself was not fully cognizant of E la Carte aka. Presto's business domains and as to what exactly the role (I was interviewing for) would entail. Regardless, we talked about my past industry experiences and how I would foresee me potentially fitting into the aforementioned role. I did ask a few questions but the recruiter danced around my questions (i.e. not offering a clear straight-forward response).
I did not hear any feedback, which itself is discourteous and downright unprofessional. Fortunately, I am in the process of accepting a fantastic offer with a large software company in a Director of Strategy role and I will be very leery of partaking in business ventures with E la Carte aka. Presto given my experiences in the recruitment stage.
And as many others here on Glassdoor have correctly pointed out: the feedback coming from a recruiter (or anyone else) is lacking and not frequent. Going silent after interviews is not only discourteous and downright unprofessional, but this will also deter good candidates from joining E la Carte aka. Presto (think about this -- if this is how one gets treated BEFORE hire, just imagine how they would treat someone AFTER they are hired!). Ghosting candidates is not cool and going silent damages the reputation of a company (keep in mind that today`s candidates are tomorrow`s leaders!). Other than that, E la Carte aka. Presto has its share of challenges, but I also get the impression that this company (given that it has changed its business model and name numerous times) does not seem to have a definitive idea as to how they'd grow their business. Interview at E la Carte aka. Presto at your peril and by doing your own due diligence beforehand. Good luck!
