I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Target (San Antonio, TX) in Feb 2012
Interview
It was very easy but time consuming. Just answer a lot of questions on a test format, then talk to a manager so they can know you face to face and get a feel for if you're going to be a good employee. Basic and straightforward. Took a month to hear back.
