I applied online. I interviewed at Target (Bengaluru) in Feb 2026
Interview
I applied at Target through referal. The HR team reached out asked basic screening questions (past salary, expectation, comfort with role in Banaglore). Then I had an interview with Director of Belonging and CSR.
All these were done virtually.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked about alignment of my experience with the job dicription. Most of the questions were in relation to the JD. They also asked about on project or initaitive which failed, one which was successful.
Super relaxed. Made me feel very comfortable. They really dug into my experience leading teams and lots of situation based questions. They were hiring me externally, so they didn't ask any Target related questions. However, they really did want me to try and apply my experiences to the retail world.
I was asked to come in to meet with the store manager and then met with the Starbucks manager on a later date. They hired me and I completed onboarding for a day before starting behind bar.
