Job interview at target?



This is my first job interview, what type of questions should i be prepared for ?

What are some good things to say, and some bad things not to say ?

loL dude ! i had a job interview at target like 3 weeks ago bad thing is they pay lousy and i heard they treat u like slaves dont expect just 1 person to interview you your gonna be interviewed 3 times that day by different people. Well on your the 1st and 2nd interview there gonna ask you about your past experience, about your education remember the 1st interview is the hardest if u have to pull questions out of your *** do it. On the 1st interview there gonna ask you around 25 question also like "tell me a time when you had to overcome a tough situation ? what was the situation ? and what was the outcome ? also questions like "tell me the best group or team u were ever in and what part did you have in it ? on the 2nd interview the manager interviews you its pretty easy though and quick hell ask you about what school you going to and your hobby's and what u wanna be when u grow up also hes gonna ask you why are u interested working in target ? what made u apply there ? on the 3rd interview is a bunch of crap there just gonna ask you some information about your self and what times u will be able to work. - Hope that helped ! oh and did i mention they pay crappy ? loL around $7.50 / hr
They will likely ask about your previous work experience and things like:

Have you ever worked a cash register?
How good are your math skills?
Do you have experience working with people?
What shifts are you/are not available to work?
What's your greatest strength/weakness?
Have you ever been arrested and if so, why?
Have you ever been terminated from a position & if so, why?
How do you handle conflict? They may ask you describe a scenario in which you faced conflict and what you did to resolve it.
Do you have any sales experience?

If you have no experience, be sure to make them aware that you are quick and eager to learn. They will want someone who is diligent and a team player. They will want someone who is dependable (likely to show up for work rather than call in sick every other day). They will want someone who has good social skills.
tell me about your self

why do you want to work here

are you a fast learner

how do you do under pressure

do you get along with others

they may give you a senario of a situtaion the might happen and ask you to say what you would do for ex. if you see a employee steal from the cash register what do you do? answer: i would discreatly go to a manager and tell them what i saw. somthing like that.
just be yourself and try not to be too nervous.
if you get stuck on a question, instead of just going.."umm" ask if you may think about it for a few minutes and calmly try to come up with an answer.
Job interviewers are notorious for asking questions like
what are your strengths?
what are your weaknesses?
tell me about a stressful situation and how you handled it?
how well do you handle pressure?
can you work well with others?

don't stress out too much.
