A recruiter contacts you, then boasts about Target’s omnipotence and benevolence. They expect the interviewee to reaffirm this braggadocio by "kissing the ring." Often, the recruiter will claim they are interested in you for a specific position you applied for, drag their feet for weeks, and then explain that the position was filled internally.

After this, the recruiter may offer a token gesture of a lower-level position, as if "getting your foot in the door" at any cost is somehow worthwhile.

If you continue the relationship beyond this phase of bad faith, the recruiter will return a few weeks later, asking you to apply for a similar job to the one you initially applied for.

Thereafter, you will undergo a "behavioral" based interview before advancing to speak with a Store Director or District Director, depending on your specific role.

Throughout the process, the recruiter may lie about salary ranges.

Hold out; if they want you, they will pay up.

Tell me about a time you had to speak up.
