Job Description

Target Corporation is a well-established American retail giant known for its broad range of offerings that empower families to enjoy the everyday moments of life. With a strong presence across the United States, Target emphasizes a culture rooted in values and community engagement, making it a preferred employer and shopping destination alike. Target has cultivated a dynamic work environment where team members thrive by contributing to an inclusive and innovative retail experience. The company is committed to creating value for guests and team members through exceptional service, comprehensive benefits, and growth opportunities.

This opening is for the position of On-Demand Team Member (TM) at Target, a flexible, part-time role ideally suited for individuals seeking personalized work schedules aligned with their availability. The role offers an hourly rate of $17.00 USD, making it attractive for those looking to balance work with other commitments. As an On-Demand TM, you won’t have a fixed weekly schedule; instead, you can select shifts via Target's proprietary scheduling app, myTime, enabling control over when and how much you work. This flexibility requires reliable attendance and engagement, including working at least one shift every four weeks to maintain employment status.

The role primarily involves guest advocacy, focusing on delivering excellent service, supporting store operations, and enhancing shopper loyalty. You will be involved with greeting guests, providing assistance, handling transactions efficiently, and maintaining a clean, safe store environment. The position is critical to driving guest satisfaction through a welcoming and knowledgeable approach, assisting with checkout lanes, order pickup, and digital service solutions like the Target app. You'll gain valuable skills in communication, customer relationship management, problem-solving, and teamwork in a fast-paced retail context.

Target invests significantly in onboarding and training new team members, ensuring that you will be well-equipped to fulfill your responsibilities. Orientation sessions and structured training help you become acquainted with operational standards, safety protocols, merchandise handling, and consumer engagement strategies. This role also offers exposure to multiple aspects of retail operations, including working with technology tools like handheld scanners and managing compliance with various company policies.

The nature of the role is physically active, requiring the ability to move throughout the store, assist with merchandise handling, and occasionally lift weights up to 44 pounds. You must be adaptable to different work environments, including varying temperature conditions for tasks such as drive-up order fulfillment. The store operates on varied schedules, with shifts available during nights, weekends, holidays, and peak shopping times, demanding a flexible approach and the capability to work under pressure while maintaining a friendly and professional demeanor.

Joining Target as an On-Demand Team Member means becoming part of a supportive team committed to quality service and ethical standards. Beyond competitive pay, Target offers a comprehensive benefits program which can be further explored on its corporate careers page. This role is an excellent entry point for individuals looking to gain retail experience, develop customer service skills, and potentially grow within a leading retail company. You will play a crucial role in creating positive and memorable shopping experiences, aligning with Target’s mission to enrich every household it serves.
