I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Philadelphia, PA) in Mar 2012
Interview
Very unpleasant experience. I went to the college career fair, briefly spoke with Target's representatives, left my resume, and received a call from university's career services. They told me Target was really impressed with my resume, and wanted to invite for the interview. I have my Masters degree, and when I was attending Target information session, their representative was very surprised to find me among BS seniors. I asked her how many people would interview us, and she answered minimum 2. In reality, it was just one guy, newly minted college graduate himself who was reading the interview questions from the list (nothing new, thanks to the glassdoor you can find all the answers here), listening to me and writing at the same time. I have got several years of professional experience, interviewed hundreds of people myself, and I know I nailed that interview. Nevertheless, in a few days I received an email basically saying: thanks but no thanks. I was wondering if you already had a candidate and job profile (focusing on BS candidates) why on earth to contact someone with my background?

Interview
It was a two step interview process. Personable and you are able to interview with not only your direct managers but theirs as well. Provides transparency into your new team. My interview was virtual because I was moving to the area, but I'm sure they do in person for local folks.
