I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2011
Interview
A few weeks after I submitted my resume, I received a call for an interview within the week. During my interview I was asked a lot of team oriented questions. A few problem solving questions. As well as a couple 'what if' questions putting me in a situation with a guest and what I would do. My interviewer did ask about my previous work experience, and from that he asked my strengths and weaknesses of that job were. Immediately after I was hired, given my salary and began 2 weeks later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you describe a time when you had to lead a team of employees and things did not work out? What did you end up doing afterwards?
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
