I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target (Menifee, CA) in Oct 2010
Interview
The interview was simple. Just the basic retail interview. For example, 'why do you want to work at Target', 'why did you choose to apply for a cashier', 'where do you see yourself with Target in 5 years'. And then there's the basic job interview where they ask, 'tell me about a time you were frustrated with another employee and how did you deal with it', and the 'tell me about the time you went above and beyond and how did it affect you' type thing. They don't really mind of what you're wearing, just don't be wearing anything provocative or anything that will get you in trouble. After that, I got a call about 30 minutes later saying I was hired and needed to do a background check and a drug test. Then after that, got another call a week or two later saying I passed the tests and needed to come to orientation. (;
I did an online interview followed by a phone call, which were both went pretty smoothly compared to most interviews I have done. The questions in the video interview are the usual interview questions, and the phone call were mostly confirming my hiring.
I was first interviewed by team lead then the store’s manager. They asked situational questions that were very easy to answer. Then they made a hiring decision right on the spot.

I did a virtual interview on HireVue and then was called in for a follow up a few days later, in person. The virtual interview was easy and you could re-record your answers up to 3 times.
