I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target in May 2013
Interview
There will be two interviews. The first is a phone interview that doesn't last long, asking you simple questions like what does opportunity mean to you. The second interview is in person and asks scenario based questions like "name a time when..." They hired me immediately after the second interview so I think if you get to the second interview you are in a good position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Target wants to make sure you will work well on their team, so the interviewer will ask a lot of questions on how you will work with others and ask for previous times you worked well with others. They also asked "what is one thing you can improve about yourself." Not necessarily a tough question but one to think about.
Was just a quick 10 minute call from the store manager, didn't take long at all. He asked if I had the availability he was looking for and if I could be punctual. Smooth process
It was overall very brief from applying to hearing back. Was just a day of meeting with a couple managers and talking through a cashier job. Nothing too out of the ordinary for a role like this.
It was interesting. Not hard at all, straightforward, and pretty open people. It was an okay interview and what you’d typically expect. So don’t stress stress it, I mean kinda try your best
