Interview
When I went in for an interview at Target, there is a packet of questions they ask you, they tell you that your answers have to be a story. This means a beginning a middle and an ending.

Interview
Not bad, didn't stay long, got the job immediately. I was wearing a suit. The suit was the same suit that I wore to one of my sibling's weddings. I was visited by three associates, which I over-examined the Dickensian nature of that number, three visitors. Such a lovely perspective to see what's behind these stone mason walls for which I walked many a-time as a customer, yet never as a potential employee. The questions, they came, and I answered them with sincere honesty and ease. Each manger that I spoke with evoked a certain level of professionalism that I admired, though slightly marred by the consumerist ennui that was apparent.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if you saw a spill? Have you ever taken money from a cash register? Etc. I tried to flip the question back on them by asking about the conceptual design of their then-newly refurbished shopping carts, with their chamfered edges and clothes hanger slots situated in the front handle.
I went during a hiring event, so we had the first interview with HR, then was told to wait then called in for the second interview about how our experience will help with the job
