I first met the Target staffing reps at a college career fair. We spoke of the Team Lead position, an entry level job working in the store. I attended informational sessions and chatted with the reps afterwards. Pending an online assessment consisting of math and comprehension problems, I got an interview the following week. As impressed as I was with the company, the interview process was very disappointing. I am told that the interview is usually conducted by a two-person cell - one to ask me questions and another to transcribe my responses. The rep greeted me and informed me that they were short staffed all day and that she would be the only one conducting the interview. All of this would have been fine if it weren't for how impersonal it was. There were 11 scenario-based questions and were as standard and monotone as you might imagine. (i.e. - What are your strengths and weaknesses? Describe a time when you showed leadership and another when you failed. etc). The problem was that she kept her nose to the paper the whole time. With the exception of the initial handshake, we never made eye contact again. If felt detached and impersonal, and the style might as well have been a phone interview. I believe the interview process should be a two-way conversation. Interviewers are out to seek a valued part of the team, so it's reasonable for the interviewee to have similar needs. No one wants to be just another number. I am sure that interview experiences will vary, but I left the room feeling extremely disappointed.
