Question 1
Tell us about a time you had an upset customer and what did you do to fix the issue
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Target (Brooklyn, NY) in Oct 2012
Interview
I applied mid September. A friend works at the one I was interested in working at and she asked HR to pull my app up. I was called the beginning of October. I was scheduled to have an over-the-phone interview on the 16th. The person who interviewed me over the phone was EXTREMELY nice. It wasn't a stiff conversation and she made it easy to understand the questions. She also laughed a lot which made me more comfortable. After completing the first interview, I was told to come in the next day for an in-person interview which was at 3pm. I arrived at abut 2:30 and was sat in a room with other applicants where I had to complete a questionnaire. Basic what would you do questions, easy. I was than called in by a really nice young man. He basically asked me the what would you do and name a time where questions similar to the over-the-phone one. I was asked if I had any questions in which I asked bout transitioning from Seasonal to Regular Part-Time and about students being able to move up even while attending school. After that in-person interview I was told to sit back in the waiting room to be called again. 2 minutes later I was called by a female who offered me the position and explained Drug Testing and Background Testing procedures, Pay and Orientation date.
After submitting myapplication through the Target Careers portal, i completed a brief, automated assessment of mywork availability and job-related skills. i then received an email invitation to complete a recorded video interview, where i was asked 5–8 pre-recorded questions. For each prompt, i received 2 minutes of preparation time and up to 3 minutes to record my answer.
