I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Target (Ocean, NJ) in Feb 2013
Interview
I filled out an application online at about 6pm and 2 hours later I was called to set up a telephone interview. The phone interview was about 3 days later and it was for 10:30pm since it was for an overnight position. The phone interview was pretty easy. I was asked a few behavioral questions and about my strenghts and weaknesses. After the phone interview I was set up for an in person interview. This in person interview was scheduled at night time too. When I arrived I was asked to complete a test that was on the computer and after that I was called into the HR for the interview. The person that interviewed me never looked me in the eyes, she just asked questions off of a sheet of paper. I was asked questions about if a customer wanted shoes for her child and they weren't in stock, what would I do. I was asked about my availability and my strenghts and weaknesses. She asked me if I had any questions and I did and I asked them. I felt like she didn't connect with me at all. She kept yawning and acting like she was in a hurry and she didn't give a good interview.

Interview
Very easy, was sent an email to a link that had interview question that u had to record myself answering it. Got a call back the day of or the next day. Can’t remember exactly. But very easy for the position I applied as I’m guessing it’s cause it’s a higher turn over position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A time the I was put under pressure and how did I react/ navigate the situation?
The interview was straightforward and relaxed. I applied online, and they called me in within a few days. The manager asked about my availability, ability to work overnight shifts, and comfort with physical work like lifting boxes and stocking shelves. The process took about 20–30 minutes, and they explained the job expectations clearly before making their decision.
