With hundreds of stores across the United States, Target serves millions of guests daily, offering a wide range of products from apparel and electronics to groceries and home goods. The company's core purpose is to help all families discover the joy of everyday life through outstanding customer service and high-quality products. Target emphasizes a culture built on values such as respect, teamwork, innovation, and community involvement, making it a sought-after employer in the retail sector.

The On-Demand Team Member role at Target provides a unique and flexible employment opportunity for individuals seeking to balance work with personal commitments. Unlike traditional scheduled positions, On-Demand Team Members create their schedules by selecting shifts through the myTime mobile scheduling app, allowing for a personalized work-life balance. This position is ideal for those who value flexibility and the ability to work varying hours based on availability and store needs. The starting hourly rate for this position is $15.00 USD per hour.

As an On-Demand Team Member, you will not be included on the weekly posted schedule but instead have the freedom to pick up shifts that best suit your availability. Reliable and prompt attendance is essential, as you are expected to work at least one shift every four weeks, with a minimum shift length of four hours. Failure to respond to scheduling communications or to work shifts within a five-month period may result in the termination of employment. This dynamic role requires active engagement, strong communication skills, and a willingness to work during peak shopping times such as nights, weekends, holidays, and other high-demand periods.

In addition to flexibility, this position offers comprehensive training and orientation designed to prepare new team members effectively. During the initial phase, you will attend a Target Welcome orientation along with a structured training schedule to ensure you are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge. After training, the myTime app becomes your primary tool for managing and picking up shifts.

The role also embodies Target's commitment to outstanding guest service and engagement. As a Guest Advocate, you will play a vital role in creating memorable shopping experiences by interacting with guests, addressing their needs, and promoting the store's services and loyalty programs. Your responsibilities will include greeting guests warmly, assisting with returns and complaints, participating in the upkeep of store cleanliness, and supporting various fulfillment services such as order pickup and drive-up.

Being successful in this role means thriving in a fast-paced, physically active environment where teamwork, problem-solving, and a welcoming attitude are paramount. You will develop key skills such as effective communication, multitasking, and the ability to navigate technology used within the store. The position also requires handling cash register operations accurately and ensuring compliance with safety and ethical standards.

Target values its team members and provides numerous opportunities for growth and career development. Working as an On-Demand Team Member offers a supportive workplace culture and competitive benefits designed to enhance overall well-being. Eligible employees may access financial benefits, education assistance, health and wellness programs, and more, making Target not just a place to work but a place to grow your career.
