      Executive Team Leader Interview

      Oct 9, 2015

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Washington, DC) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      The hiring process consisted of four interviews and one online assessment. I applied for the position on Targets website and was contacted by their HR department about a month later. They scheduled me for my first interview which was with an HR employee over the phone. It lasted about an hour and consisted of 4 behavioral questions and the standard, “Tell me about yourself” and “Why Target?” questions. At the conclusion of that interview I was told that I had to take an online assessment within 48 hours to continue on in the hiring process. The assessment was pretty standard, except for the deductive reasoning portion which I found to be rather difficult. About a week later I was contacted again by the HR department and was scheduled for an interview with a store team leader in their store. The style of interview was the same as the first with four behavioral questions following the STAR format. It lasted about an hour and forty minutes in a relaxed environment. Again it was about a week long wait before being contacted for my third interview with the District HR Manager at their local corporate office. This interview was very similar to the first two but a little shorter only lasting about thirty minutes. I was told it would be about a week before hearing either way, but I was contacted the next day to schedule the fourth interview with the District Store Manager. This to me seemed more like a confirmation interview than anything else. It only took about twenty-five minutes and consisted of only three questions. Overall the hiring process is lengthy and repetitive, but not difficult. Make sure you practice your responses ahead of time and research your interviewer. I was able to find an article interviewing the District Store Manager about her leadership philosophy and what she looks for when hiring for a leadership position.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or 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.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Star format- they want a story for each accomplishment they inquire about.
