I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Target (Nashville, TN) in Apr 2009
Interview
They opened a new Target and interviewed about 60 people in a few days and most were hired. We answered some simple questions and did a drug screen. Most people who were there were either high school students or in college. Our interviewer was also very young. But they expected a fairly high turnover rate as people went back to school and needed people temporarily to move boxes and stock the store since they have just opened. It was just a matter of getting to the interview, you were almost guaranteed to be hired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me something you did to resolve a difficult situation with a customer. There were some others, but as long as you passed the drug screen, you were hired.
It was two interviews. The first one was a recorded interview for 15 minutes and the second interview was in person. The questions were very similar. It is common questions that they would ask for being in retail.
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.
