I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target (Bengaluru) in Feb 2023
Interview
I was approached by HR on LinkedIn. They asked me send in my CV and Portfolio and was later approached by another HR who told me I've been shortlisted and i was asked to fill in the form on their web portal ( which was surprising as I didn't meet their experience requirements). However, i got to the interview and it went quite well. I was asked about my past experiences, my passions and skills and why I wanted to join target. It was fairly informal and the interviewer was very approachable. However, due to the experience criteria, i didn't get the job. I feel there are internal communication issues between HR and the team. The HR shouldn't be shortlisting candidates who don't meet the criteria. Overall, I felt like the company seemed like a nice place to work out, I'm open to considering it again ( hope to get a better HR experience next time!)

It was really nice and conversational, the recruiter was really helpful in helping prepare. Everyone was really nice to talk to and questions transitioned into conversations very smoothly. It was a great interview process, but there was sometimes a long gap between interviews.
The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target (Minneapolis, MN) in Mar 2021
Interview
First round was a call with their hiring department. They did a video call where they had me walk them through my portfolio site, as well as grilled me with questions for a half hour.
