I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target (Minneapolis, MN) in Feb 2009
Interview
Applied online on a Sunday. By Wednesday afternoon rec'd call for interview on Friday. When I arrived on Friday, they had me take "behavior" test. Interviewed 1:1, with 2 people. Basic questions (in no particular order) : 1) Why do you want to work at Target? 2) Why are you leaving your present job? 3) In what areas do you need improvemetn? 4) Without supvr's direction, describe a time when you helped someone on your own? 5) Have you ever disagreed with your boss? If so, what was the disagreement and how did you handle it? 6) How did you handle a position where a co-worker was not pulling their weight? 7) In the next 60 days will you need time off for a vacation, etc? 8) How did you turn a bad situation into a good situation? The whole process was exactly 45 minutes. I was told "If you don't hear from us by Tuesday, give us a call. Truthfully, I made the mistake of telling them "I needed 5 days off to drive my mother from Arizona. I do this every spring." I found out that during the 90 probation period Target REALLY frowns on tardiness or missed work. Advice? CLEAR YOUR CALENDAR for Target if you really, really want the job. I'll post again with the result next week. All the best... Stay calm, stay positive...

Question 1
Will you need any time off for vacation or otherwise during the next 60 days?
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Target (Mansfield, TX) in Aug 2025
Interview
It was an online interview, and I didn't meet anyone face-to-face. So, it was a little awkward to act like myself when I was just looking at a screen rather than actually speaking to a person.

Question 1
"Tell me about a time you worked as part of a team to complete a goal."
They give you questions virtually, then time to prepare a response. You don't actually have an interview with a person, your answers to the questions are recorded. A manager will then review your answers and then proceed from there.

Question 1
You notice a guest needs help on the sales floor, but you're in the middle of a task. What do you do?
I applied for the position online, and was called for an interview a few days later. I had interview with a team lead and then an exec team lead. Very straightforward and simple experience overall.
