Target wants to hire the best of the best. This question serves two purposes. It would help them determine how well you would represent their brand and how above and beyond you would go to deliver a great customer service experience. On the other hand, it would help them determine if you are a clock watcher, biding your time to leave work while putting in the bare minimum.

You can find everything you need to answer these questions and align your values with theirs on their careers page. You should also have a cursory familiarity with the shopping experience in their stores. Target states on its website, "Investing to create an engaging and differentiated shopping experience. How we get the job done: Bringing our strategy to life is important work, and we couldn't do it without great people and capabilities. Our commitments help us welcome all guests and bring them ease, inspiration -- and, of course, joy -- every time they shop with us.
