Interviewed Jul 2009 (took a day)

First received a call from Target HR after submitting application online. Call consisted of questions regarding education, availability, future goals, and ended with scheduling an interview.

Before the interview, they gave me 20 questions regarding how I would handle different situations while working at the store. Then proceeded with the interview.

Interview consisted of 5 different people coming in one at a time. Each lasted about 10-15 minutes. Interviews were basically "was there ever a time you did this...what was the outcome?" and other situational questions. Standard questions such as "why do you want to work for Target?" were also asked.

Tip: RELAX and try to be yourself. I know those two tips are easier said then done, but act like you're interested in the position and always willing to stay motivated. MAKE SURE YOU RESEARCH THE COMPANY before you go into the interview.
