The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Target in July 2011
Interview
First I received a phone call from the HR executive. They asked me several questions about my previous job, my current availability, and other "get to know you" questions. After the phone interview was over we set up a day to do the follow-up in person interviews. I chose a day when I could do all the interviews at once. Needless to say I spent several hours in the office. The interview questions mostly consisted of situational interview questions "tell me about a time..."

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Target (New York, NY)
Interview
Process consists of 3 interviews. I had 2 back to back one day and then another one a few days later. First two were with one of the other team leads and then the Executive Team Lead. The last one was with the Store Director.
The interviews consisted of mostly "Tell me a about a time...". The interviewers were very friendly and enthusiastic. I feel it really said a lot about the work place culture at Target and how much they enjoyed working there.
The questions aren't that difficult and the interviews are about 20-30 mins. Be sure to come prepared to discuss examples of times when you had to manage situations with customers or team members. Do that and bring a lot of enthusiasm to the interview and you'll do well!
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Target (Fort Walton Beach, FL)
