I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Target (Columbus, OH) in Sept 2017
Interview
Started out with review of resume, there were 2 interviewers. They asked me about my resume and my experiences. Then they asked basic behavioral questions, the man asked and the women recorded my responses. "Tell me about a time when.." questions. Closed with me asking them questions. They were very friendly and I thought the interview went well. Target is a competitive place to work for. I heard back about a week later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you made a mistake and what you had to do to fix it.
For my internship you start with an online interview answering questions into the camera. Then if they like you, you have a second interview that they send you a packet to prepare with. All of the questions are about what you do in a certain scenario. Majority are management/leadership questions.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Dallas, TX) in Mar 2025
Interview
Phone screening then a zoom meeting, consist of four questions using the STAR method. Make sure you are prepared as some of the questions are looking for specific stories and not just what would you do but what did you do to get the results. Also be ready to explain your background.
