The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target in Sep 2009
Interview
I interviewed with three different people. They all asked similar questions like, â??Tell me about a time when you had to make an important decision with very little information.â? â??Tell me about a time when you did something and did not at first succeed.â? They also wanted to know what it was about Target that made me want to work there. They expected me to know what direction I would take in the company (owner of a store, regional manager etc). I think it would be helpful to have spoken to someone that works in management at Target and use some of their experiences as motivation to want to work there. They expected me to be really excited about the company, maybe even more so than about the actual position and my past experiences.

The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Fort Lauderdale, FL) in Jun 2009
Interview
It started with a quick interview with a recriuter followed up by a formal interview later that same day. Both of these where done over the phone. Next was an assessment test followed by another phonew interview with the district manager. Then I was asked to come down to Miami from Alabama to interview with the district manager and the HR business partner. I recieved an EMAIL a week later sating they had gone in a different direction.

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Camden, SC) in Mar 2007
Interview
Step One - phone interview. Questions are very general. The HR department asks broad open ended behavioral questions. If you do well on the initial interview you will be scheduled for an on-line skills assesment.
Step Two - On-line skills assessment. Test is designed to quantify your critical thinking and mathmatical skills. Some questions also designed to address your ability to work with others.
Step Three - Interview with another higher positioned HR representative.
Step Four - Tour of facility and workgoup.
**I noted later in the review that the interview was easy but I work in HR and have done so for years and have been fortunate enought to conduct literally thousands of interviews. I no longer get nervous and can usually predict most questions that I will be asked depending upon the position. The skills assessment was not easy and I felt like it was a good validated assessment.

Question 1
The questions all took place during a general discussion about my work history. I simply discussed what my job responsibilities were and through that discussion answered general questions.
