I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Target (Auburn, AL) in June 2009
Interview
I had heard great things about Target's ETL program, but wasn't impressed with the interview process. I showed up for my interview early (punctuality is very important to them) and the manager told me that he forgot that I was coming. I sat outside for about 30 minutes until he called me back, and asked me about 10 behavioral questions. (tell me about a difficult decision, etc) which I went through fairly quickly. This format was not my style and I didn't go nearly as in depth as they were looking for. I missed this, but they really just want you to talk. Use the STAR outline for best luck.

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.
