Interviewed Jan 2012 in Phoenix, AZ (took 2 days)
I was called in for an interview after applyinf on line and taking an assesment online. Then had to take another assesment before the interview that was only available in the store. The interview was a three step process. First with a supervisor, then another interview with two managers, then a final interview a few days later with the store manager.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 3 days)
This was an internal interview. When applying internally for a team lead position the process is pretty straight forward. You have three separate interviews with the ETLs. One with ETLHR, one with the STL and one with the ETL in the department you are trying to be a team lead in. Each interview session consists of 5 situational questions, some of which are essentially reworded in the other interviews. There are also several other questions such as "why do you want to be a team lead?" and "what do you know about this position?" All I have to say is do your research about the position! Don't just apply for it to be a team lead and not know what you would be doing every day. If you successfully pass the ETL round then you would potentially go on to interview over the phone with the District Team Lead. It is the DTL who will sign you off to be a team lead.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 4 days)
I applied for the position online and received a call a few days later to come in for an interview. I came in and went to guest services as instructed. When I told one of the team members that I was there for an interview, she told me to go to the computer to take a short questionnaire on what I would do in different situations. When I went back to guest services, one of the team members told me that she would be conducting the interview. She had a blank look on her face and didn't seem to be very happy to be at work. I went back and had an interview with her. She just read from a page word for word and took notes on her paper. After she completed her questions she told me that I was going to interview with a salaried executive team member. The next interviewer walked in an immediately said that he normally does not do interviews since he works the night shift. The interview with him was a bit more relaxed, but with the same type of situational questions. The whole process was very blah and none of the team members seemed like they wanted to be at work. I received an email a few days later I received an email saying that they could not offer me a position at this time, mind you I have three years of high volume retail experience and was well qualified for this position.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 2 weeks)
3 20 min interviews with ETL HR, ETL GE and STL. After passing those interview with District Manager. All situational questions, tell me about a time you worked as part of a team. Tell me a time you made a mistake. 3 part answers. Situation, your part in it, outcome and what you learned. Both ETL's were new to Target and no help in drawing out from you if your were stuck. STL and DM were good at explaining what they wanted in answers and asking follow-up questions. They are looking for team players who will remain calm in high stress situations.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Tempe, AZ (took a day)
The process was pretty standard for a basic cashier job. I actually interviewed with two members of the team, and after the second interview the ETL said that he felt that I was too qualified for the cashier position so he was going to talk to HR and see what he could do for me. So I am currently in the interview process for TL.

Interviewed Jun 2008 in Tempe, AZ (took a day)
I had already been working at Target in Collections and an opportunity for this position came up. Moving around for Target Financial Services in Tempe is very difficult, and open positions are few and far between. This job was not available to the public (target promotes mainly from within), and was posted on the internal Target website. After speaking with my TDL to see if she'd support my decision to submit my resume, an interview was set up. It was the typical target interview, in the manner of "tell me about a time......."(if you're internal, ask your tdl for the list!). The interview was about half hour long, and I learned I was hired within 3 days. The Target Financial Services building in Tempe is very welcoming, everyone who works there is wonderfully helpful, and they follow through quickly with interview results both internally and externally.
