I heard of the available position through my girlfriend of the time who was working at this location. To apply I had to fill out a typical online application that wanted to know past work experiences and level of education. It seemed that there wasn&#8217;t a whole lot of requirements for the position. After filling out the application I got a confirmation email that my application was under review and then a couple week later I got a Email notifying me that I got the position and had a list of the next steps to complete for onboarding into the company.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>  At the time I was super excited to get the position as it was relatively well paying and I was able to get the weekend shift that I wanted since I was going to school at the same time. Its been a couple years since applying for this job, and the more that I think about it, the whole application process was easy but it wasn&#8217;t very welcoming. You kind of feel like just another number to this big company because they don&#8217;t even take the time to interview you. They have so many people to hire that its not a very warm and welcoming process. Overall the hiring process was a good signal of how the company operates as you come to find that every worker is very easily replaced. It isn&#8217;t until you get into the management level of the company that they start taking personal interest in who you are.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The last job application I completed was for the position of warehouse associate at a Target distribution center.
