I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2007
Interview
Target's hiring process consists of numerous situational based interviews to challenge one's leadership potential. The process began with a phone interview with a campus recruiter which led to an invitation to take a personality assessment and skills test. The skills test was extremely tedious and we were asked to not use a calculator. I would suggest that one would use one if one's math skills are sub-par. Then I went to a store and interviewed with two target executives. After this interview I was contacted two weeks later to interview with another three target executives. At this point, you are brought into a store, complete a store tour, and are with a group of 8-20 individuals and are called in one at a time to interview with three separate individuals.
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

I applied through 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.
