I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target in Sep 2015
Interview
I reached out to a recruiter in my area on LinkedIn after discovering they would be attending a job fair at my Alma Mater. I got a quick response from the recruiter and she schedule we scheduled a phone interview for the following week. She asked me a series of " Get to Know You" questions followed my behavioral situation type questions. After the interview I completed an assessment and she gave me tips on how to conduct myself for the next interviews. I had a total of 4 interviews within 2 weeks all of which per over the phone (normally they do try to schedule at least one face to face interview). I interviewed with recruiter, district team leader, store team leader, and group marker leader. All the questions asked were posted on this page and I reviewed every post and wrote down how i would answer the questions. In total I came up with about 20 question and answer total. My recruiter and reviewing the post on glass door were MAJOR factors in my success.
