ok so i applied at target and got a job interview. i went in for the interview today and nailed it, they said they wanted to hire me after the first 3 questions and they really really liked me. they said they couldnt actually offer me the job today because its saturday and will call me monday to offer it to me. after i left target today they called me and asked me to come in for a second interview on monday. so my question is.....
If they said they wanted to hire me and they said i was hired then why would they do a second interview? what is the second interview for? is it just for the process to get me hired? signing paper work and drug test and check my availability? please tell me what the second interview is about? i know i probably got the job but i just want to make sure.
Job Interview Basics - How to Sell Yourself
Recommended Answer:I work at Target. All potential employees are required to go through 2 different interviews with 2 different people. The second one is the one where they go over your availability, sometimes asking some more questions like in your first interview, they then can offer you a conditional job offer where they tell you the position and how much you will make. All you gotta do then is take a drug test within 24 hours and wait for the results. Usually takes less then a week, mines took 3 days. After they see you are clean, you will be emailed, then called to confirm a date and time to go to an orientation.
During orientation, you fill out all the paperwork, you watch like 3 hours of videos on policies, situations, etc then you get a quick tour of the store. You also get paid for orientation too, it will show up on your paycheck. After you do orientation, you get a training schedule the same day that tells you when to show up to work for the next 2 weeks. This schedule is going to have minimal hours, mines was 18.5 hours the first two weeks. During these two weeks you get trained the first day, and basically work on your own after. After your 2 weeks, you get a name badge, discount card, and you get more hours. Usually 15-25 a week depending on performance.
I applied at Target online on a thursday, 3 days later got called for a interview the next day, did the interview and got a job offer the same day, same day as my interview I went for a drug test and 3 days later I got a call saying to come to orientation the following Monday. Took me a little over a week to apply, interview, test, and do orientation.

- Signing paper work, giving the drug test, and checking your availability is most likely all they want to do to seal the deal. I was given my drug test on the second interview also at Kroger.
Quick question: How did you get the interview? Did you call and talk to the hiring manager? How long did they/you called between the time you put in the application? Also, what questions did they ask you on the interview? I've been trying to get a job at Target for a while. Thanks
