Any NTers previously worked or are currently working at Target? I have an interview tomorrow

Not hating on you Shottyblood, but pretty much everything you said is FALSE.

-Sales floor = you deal with people ALL DAY
-you don't get paid comission.
-They're not going to ask you about ANYTHING about Walmart. WHY WOULD THEY?
-your duties will consist of cleaning up aisles, doing go-backs, getting calls & helping guests, and running the register once in a while.

During the first interview they will ask you for basic info and work experience. It's not until the second interview (if you get one) that they will asksome specific questions about teamwork. Questions like "what values does a good team player have?", "explain a time when you took responsibilityfor a team".

They'll let you know right on the spot if you got hired or not (after your second interview). And from there, you can negotiate a wage (most likely will bearound minimum wage if you have no work experience) and you will have to take a drug test within 24 hours.

Sales floor is alot better then cashiering. besides the crappy hours, it's a pretty chill job especially if your coworkers are around your age group.however, i personally feel that target underpays their employees, so don't sell yourself short when neogiating a wage but at the same time, don't askfor a ridiculously high amount either.

If it matters, I'm currently an electronics sales specialist at target. good luck on your interview.

Pretty much everything d0njay said

they'll ask you about your old job, what you like /dislike about it..and you might be able to get a second interview on the same day depending on what timeyou go and how bad they need help.

Definately don't short yourself on wage..and ask questions.

I work at target too..backroom now but I started on the salesfloor..the fun begins as soon as back-to-school starts

yeah what d0njay said is on point if they hire you just don't work in softlines that area sucks thats all the clothes and it gets real messy. I thinktarget employees are underpaid for the way the work they do. Its not hard work but it sucks casue most of the workers don't take it that serious so whenthey don't come to work you and everybody else is stuck with their block.

I just got from an interview----but my stuff would go off topic cuz the person seemed hella interested in my college experiences.

They asked me what I thought would be a good measure of promotion, asked about a time i went out of my way to help others, asked me about why i picked thatparticular target, uuuuhhhhmmmm dam, I forgot

Shame too, cuz I just had that interview a couple a days ago. Oh! She asked me why I'd be a good worker,or why I would fit in well at Target. Dam, wish I could remember more. I feel like they asked me about a time I was on a team, on what role I played on theteam. They definitely asked what I didn't like about my previous places, and what I did to work around them. They asked me a time at a previous job where Ihad trouble learning a skill, and how I did to rise to the occasion.


For me, it was no biggie cuz I've been thru my fair share of interviews---it was nothing, and the woman was really nice and engaged. Just be cool and smileoccasionally. Answer somewhat enthusiastically, but don't be fake. I'd say wear a shirt and tie but I saw a dude in a polo and jeans so........whatev.Hope this helps!
