      Executive Team Leader Interview

      15 Aug 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Target in Jul 2013

      Interview

      Interview process was fairly short, considering my first phone call was with a recruiter through LinkedIn. Though the recruiter said they were going to let me know about more information about Target, the phone call ended up being an interview which led to the next phone interview. Following the 2nd phone interview was an in-person, at store interview with a Store Leader, a District Leader, and the District Leader's HR Assistant and finally a final phone call interview with the Group Director. The process was fairly straight-forward. They mainly asked behavior-based questions which are questions that look for examples of when you handled a situation, how you handled it, and what were the outcomes/what did you learn from those situations. They asked a variety of questions from a time I had to be creative to solve a task to a time I had to discuss an uncomfortable issue or topic and have people come to a consensus. While the in-person interview probably had more communication as to what questions would be asked (so they were not the same), I believe the phone interviewers did not know what answers I gave to my previous questions as they gave feedback on my answers and letting me know I should or should not use certain answers for future interviews. The interviewers were all very energetic, kind, and representative of Target's mission and philosophy to have fun while "pushing toilet paper." They expressed a great deal of interest in staying with the company though I was fairly surprised at how young most employees were at the management level and how short they had stayed with Target (Store Leader was with Target for 6 or 7 years total).

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      When was the last time you talked to or approached a stranger and what was it for? This question was asked after all the other questions for the interview were asked that required the interviewers to take notes... I believe it was an attempt to probe into how comfortable I am at talking to guests but definitely was not a behavior-based question which caught me by surprise (though really it is not a tough question to answer).

      Application

      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.

      Star format- they want a story for each accomplishment they inquire about.
