I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target in Nov 2009
Interview
First step was completing the online application. This included questions that were previously asked in the application and several new questions. These second questions are focused around one's ability to read charts/graphs and execute simple mathematical problems.
The next step consisted of several interviews. The first was with a Team Leader. This process was both fact-finding and a "personality" test. Previous job experience and how different scenarios were handled or would be handled by you. Interestingly, the interviewer wanted to know if I had any vacation time already set aside. After being hired, they honored that time.
The third step was an interview with an Executive Team Leader. This was a much shorter interview. Some of the same questions were asked. This interview seemed to be more of a formality than anything. The only new question that was asked was why would I want to work for this company.
Lastly, the HR manager came in to offer me a position.
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
