Impersonal and time-intensive interview process
Review
I interviewed for a project manager role in contingent workforce. I invested about five hours across multiple rounds. Despite reaching late stages, I received only an automated rejection email. There was no feedback or direct communication, which felt cold after the significant time invested.
For an organization of Target’s scale, I expected a more personal and thoughtful conclusion, especially after progressing so far. Time is valuable for both parties, and a simple personal follow-up would have made a difference.
Advice to Management
If candidates are making a significant time investment, provide personal feedback or direct closure. Even brief personalized responses will improve the candidate experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very situational-based questions that were practical in nature to the role.
asked 3 out of 6 questions and gave you example of what to expect before hand but very simple since it is a recording and not in person. only thing is you only get 3 minuets per question and i believe 3 retakes.

Question 1
Explain a situation where a team member did something they weren't supposed to and how you addressed it.
It was fast, quick, professional, and straight to the point. I was explained the role and responsibilities for the position. Then was asked the hours that I was available and what hours the position called for.
