The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Target (TroTownshipood, OH) in Apr 2011
Interview
Filled out application at in-store kiosk computer . 2 weeks later got a call to schedule interview . Came in for interview a little before scheduled time . Instructed to fill out questonaire on the computer . after that i was taken back and interviewed by a lady . she was very polite and mannerable as was I . She asked me a few questions from a Target interview packet . after she asked about 4 questions , she said i did very well . I shook her hand and she said a second interviewer would be entering in a moment . after a few minutes a second lady entered with a similar packet , also very nice and very mannerable . she only asked me two questions and was also very impressed with my answers . The whole process took about 45 minutes . after the 2nd interview she asked if i was available to come in the next day to fill out some stuff . thats when i was offered the job . Nothing really too difficult , seeing as i thoroughly prepared . very good experience overall
Standard process, STAR method is good to use in interviews like this. Wear nice clothing not too dressed up not too formal and be friendly. Positive environment not super high pressure
