The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Target (Menifee, CA) in Nov 2011
Interview
I applied for a seasonal job with Target about 1.5-2 weeks ago. I've applied in the past and never heard anything back but low and behold a week later a woman called me at 7:30 in the morning asking if I would come in for an interview at 11. I said I couldn't so she offered me a 3:30 slot which I took. So I go down to the store and told them what I was there for and a lady sat me down at a computer and I took a questionnaire similar to the one you fill out online the 1st time. Then I sat in the breakroom for about 45 minutes. Then I was called back and was interviewed by a very nice lady. She asked me most of the questions people on here have already posted. I was really nerves and a little jittery but she understood and everything went okay. Then I was sent back to the breakroom and waited about 20 minutes when another woman called me back. She was nice, really distracted, but nice. She asked me some more questions (some were repeats from the 1st interview) and then she offered me a job. She told me their HR person had left for the day and to come back in 2 days. When I came back, I talked with the HR woman (very nice), signed a couple forms and she told me to come back in a week for orientation, pending a clean drug test (which I don't plan on failing).
Overall it was really easy and this site helped me prepare because all the questions people talked about are more than likely the ones you'll get asked.
The interview is 100% Virtual. Verry straight forward. You have about 3 minutes to think of your answer to the question and another 3 to record your answer. You get 3 chances to re-record your answer to each question.

Interview
I have never had such a difficult on boarding process. The initial interview was great. In the interview, I mentioned I had a family matter to take care of and would not be available. The manager and I agreed to delay my start date by a week and advise me to watch my email for an offer letter. Then CRICKETS
