I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Target in Jun 2020
Interview
Process was very organized, interview with recruiter, interview with the architect, technical case study. First two interviews went well,but choked on the third one. I was given 3 problems and asked to create a program in any language and upload to slack, did that but I feel it did not go well. I openly agree that I was busy and did not finish the code according to my standard so am not surprised that I fail, well, good experience.

Explain case study ?
Create three methods for searching the documents:
• Simple string matching
• Text search using regular expressions
• Preprocess the content and then search the index
Prompt the user to enter a search term and search method, execute the search, and return results.
it's streamlined. Min 3 rounds, 2 of them are tech rounds mostly java/little bit of coding / algorithms / DS and 1 hiring manager round. Interview panel members are very friendly and trained. Recruitment team also is good at responding to your queries.
