I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target (Plantation, FL) in Sep 2014
Interview
I arrived 30 minutes early and the customer service representative kindly told me to have a seat (she also wanted me to buy a target card to which i declined). The manager came around 20 minutes later and brought me to the interview office. I asked if he had my resume, which he did not, so i provided a neat copy for him. He asked about past work experiences and various customer problem scenarios. I used my past volunteer, intern, and sales experience to answer said questions. He also asked predictable interview questions on strengths and weaknesses (my weakness is my strength; have specifics). Got a second interview but did not get the job due to not being able to work full weekends. Expect hiring call about 10 days after interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They ask you to sell their 5% discount card and ask you to give a real world scenario for it. A sell me this pen question, if you will.
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
