I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Target (Gainesville, FL)
Interview
LONG process. Originally met someone at my schools career fair. He then went on to set up an interview for me at my career resource center. If you make it past that interview, you have two different skype interviews, at different times, with managers in the district you would work in. Finally, you have to drive to a video conference center and interview on the video camera with someone in your district.
Three out of four of my interviewer's were so nice, so easy to talk to and made me feel so comfortable!!!
Definitely a long process, but worth it! Prepare a lot, but not too difficult at all.
ALSO make sure you have questions prepped to ask them! that always makes you look good. like 3-5 questions. also, my best advice is to treat it like a conversation. The interviewers are really nice, so just relax!

Question 1
Star based interviewing!
Why retail?
Why Target?
Customer service experience?
Tell me about a time you had to........
When it came time for my interviews, I took all the questions I found on here, put them into a word document, answered and them, and PRACTICED. As long as you do something similar, you'll be good!
**ALSO** make sure you let it come across that youre NOT afraid of hard work. Cause from what they described, its a tough job, with long hours. You can stand out if you let them know from the get-go that you're up for a challenge!
Got the interview from a career fair. Met with one person who handled hiring and had a great conversation and had one other phone interview. Asked me relevant questions and I was excited about the role

What do you think would make you a good fit for this role?
I applied through university. I interviewed at Target (Charlotte, NC)
Interview
It was a two step interview process. Personable and you are able to interview with not only your direct managers but theirs as well. Provides transparency into your new team. My interview was virtual because I was moving to the area, but I'm sure they do in person for local folks.
