I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target (Colorado Springs, CO) in May 2009
Interview
One person from the service desk interviewed me, one manager interveiwed me. I actually first applied in December 2008. It was my first interview and I had no job experience. They asked me questions like, "Tell me about a time you had to finsih a task and it didn't go as planned. What did you do to solve the problem?" I went blank. Didn't get the job, needless to say.
In May 2009, I re-applied, this time with job experience under my belt and a memory for those deer-in-the-headlights questions and adequate preparation. :-}
In short: Be prepared and tay on your guard.

Question 1
"Tell me about a time you had to finsih a task and it didn't go as planned. What did you do to solve the problem?"
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
Standard process, STAR method is good to use in interviews like this. Wear nice clothing not too dressed up not too formal and be friendly. Positive environment not super high pressure
