I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target in Oct 2011
Interview
It was very systematic. Other interviews have been more of a conversation whereas with Target just read straight from their list of questions. Can't say I was very impressed. I felt like they weren't really listening to what I had to say, just reading and recording.
Other than that the questions were pretty straight forward. Why do you want to work at Target? Tell me about a time when you did something wrong and how you fixed it? Behavioral questions like that were of the norm.
One thing to look out for is that they will ask after every question what it is that you learned from that experience.

Question 1
Tell me a time you did something wrong and how you fixed it? What did you learn from it?
One phone round with recruiter and one behavioral interview. Behavioral round asked situationals and your customer service experience. They gave you example questions to prep for, so as long as you’re ready to answer all, it should be fine.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you dealt with an upset customer?
It was pretty short and they mainly asked about how I handle working on a team with other people. They asked a couple of questions regarding my work experience but they did send me a study guide before my interview of things they might asked which reeally helped.

Question 1
How well do you work on a team with lots of people?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target (Columbus, OH) in Feb 2025
Interview
I scheduled a time and she called me, no video. This was done with the hiring manager. She sounded automated and it was not personable at all. It only took around 25 minutes.
