When was the last time you contributed to a team effort, and what was your role?
At Target, teamwork is a vital part of the health of each store. Let the interviewer know what kind of teams you've been on in the past and describe how you contributed to the success of the team. Perhaps you were part of a team tackling a big project at work or school, or maybe you were on a basketball team in high school. Discuss how you personally made efforts to contribute to the team, and be sure to mention your team's successes.
"In my current position as a customer services associate, I love working with my fellow team members to meet each customer's needs with efficiency, a helpful attitude, and fun! Recently, our team had to do inventory of the entire store, which meant several early mornings -- but we made it fun by having friendly competitions and bringing each other coffee throughout the day. We even ended up finishing inventory 2 hours earlier than expected!"
