I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target in Oct 2010
Interview
Target called a day or two after my application had been submitted to set up a date for an interview. The initial interview lasted about 30 minutes with a Team Leader, someone who would be my immediate supervisor. Questions consisted of very basic personality questions. "When did you help someone?" , "How did you deal with a stressful situations?" etc. This was immediately followed up with an interview with Store Management, asking almost exactly the same questions. Both store management and team leaders were ver y optimistic, friendly, almost bubbly young women. The entire process took about an hour and half. I received a phone call the next day offering me a job on the Sales Floor, not cashier, which was the position I originally interviewed for. I accepted the position of a Sales Floor Team Member.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a time when you had to finish a task under stress
Was just a quick 10 minute call from the store manager, didn't take long at all. He asked if I had the availability he was looking for and if I could be punctual. Smooth process
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
