      Backroom Team Member Interview

      Oct 4, 2010
      Anonymous employee
      Los Angeles, CA
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Target (Los Angeles, CA) in Sep 2010

      Interview

      Started off with a phone call asking to come in for an interview. Upon arriving to store, had to do an intelligence/assessment test (most questions were on how to interpret graphs and calculate percentage of process/load), then walk to back of the store to HR office. HF office seems extremely laid back. It is a 1:1 interview with two different interviewers but I'm not sure if they were associated with backroom or not (they could both possibly be HR personnel). Waited about 30-40 minutes in between interviewers since there were several others interviewing. Both interviewers asked 3-4 situational questions while jotting down keywords to fill the positive column and negative column, then they circle a score based on how well you answered. Questions include "describe a time when you had conflict with a team member or supervisor", "describe a time when you had to do something you didn't have the skills for", "tell me a time when you and your coworker had to work together on a task". I was interviewing for Backroom Team member day regular shift (which is what i applied for) and was asked if I could work up to 40 hours a week. Received a call a few days later asking me to come in for drug test/background check. Came in and discovered they offered me a Sales Floor TM seasonal instead. Interview wasn't hard but disappointed they offered me something I didn't apply for without putting in the courtesy of letting me know on the phone before coming in for the drug test. Overall the hiring ethics and professionalism left me with a sour impression of the company. However, an income regardless of regular or seasonal is still income. You take what you can get.

      I interviewed at Target

      Interview

      Pretty simple process. Went in and interviewed with the Team Lead, most questions were behavioral in nature. Ended up just chatting for a bit and I was offered the job on the spot, then was sent to talk to the Supervising Lead who verified a couple aspects of my application.

      It was easy. Pretty straightforward. For a team member, I would not expect more which is actually a really good thing. The manager was nice as well and made the process easy.
