So I received a phone call at the end of December 2011 and was told that my resume was found on Monster.com. I was asked simple questions like past work experience and if I had a 4 year degree... The recruiter asked me if I could interview the following week at a location nearby. She asked me to fill out an application and do a Test within the next few days. (The test is not easy! Lots of Math). So next came my interview.. I first interviewed with my recruiter, 5 questions all found on this site. Then she liked me so I interviewed with the STL (Store Team Leader). I choked at this interview (five questions again) but she liked me so I interviewed next with the DTL (District Team Leader). This was again five questions. This was all within two hours so I was mentally dead. Well that went well also.. I really enjoyed speaking with everyone and it was a great experience. The DTL said I would be hearing within 7-10 days for the results. I sent a Thank You note to the recruiter and DTL as soon as I got home saying thank you and that it was nice meeting them. I didn’t have the STL email address but would have sent her one if I did. So days went by and heard nothing. I dreaded opening my email afraid that I would get the rejection email. On day 9 after the interview I emailed the DTL asking my status and I didn't receive a response. On day 11 I emailed my recruiter and she emailed me right back saying the STL was going to be "connecting" with me soon. On day 15 after the interview I received a call from the STL and was asked if I could come in for another interview the following week... So 3 weeks after my initial 1 on 1 interview I had another. The STL was super nice and told me that she wanted to interview me for a lower position and if I would be interested. I told her yes and went on with the interview with one of the ETL's in the store. Truthfully I was hurt but I’m glad I was given the opportunity to interview again and not received that reject email. I interviewed and the STL asked if I would be ok with a certain $$ amount and I asked if she could go higher. Two days passed and I was asked to come into the following week for HR stuff. I was given more money and was given a drug test packet to take within 24 hours. So yes I was hurt that I went in interviewing for an ETL position but ended up with a lower position. I figure I already have a degree and I could always use my Education degree later on or advance in Target after I get my feet wet. I am excited to work with the STL because she seemed like a genuinely nice person and that’s hard to come by in management. Also I studied this site like crazy, so I suggest that you rehearse questions and answers and have some EXCELLENT stories to tell! Good Luck!

Got the interview from a career fair. Met with one person who handled hiring and had a great conversation and had one other phone interview. Asked me relevant questions and I was excited about the role
