Job Description

Target is a leading retail company known for delivering exceptional shopping experiences and a wide range of high-quality products to customers across the United States. With a reputation built on community involvement, innovative retail approaches, and a commitment to diversity and inclusion, Target strives to create a welcoming environment for both guests and employees. The company's culture emphasizes teamwork, service excellence, and personal growth, making it a preferred employer in the retail sector. Working at Target means contributing to a larger vision of helping all families discover the joy of everyday life through convenient shopping, product variety, and outstanding customer service. Target's brand recognition and customer loyalty speak to its success and ongoing efforts to innovate and meet evolving consumer needs.

The On-Demand Team Member role at Target offers a unique and flexible employment opportunity ideal for individuals seeking personalized work schedules. This position allows team members to work as much or as little as they want, by selecting shifts through the myTime mobile scheduling app, rather than being tied to a fixed weekly schedule. This flexibility is perfect for those who require adaptable hours and enjoy being part of a dynamic retail environment. Team members in this role are expected to maintain reliable and prompt attendance, and regularly engage with available shifts to ensure continued employment. Effective communication and responsiveness are critical, as failure to work shifts or respond to scheduling communications could lead to termination.

On-Demand Team Members are required to attend a Target Welcome orientation alongside a short-term structured training program designed to prepare them for various responsibilities as Guest Advocates. This role encompasses essential guest service functions such as greeting customers warmly, assisting with inquiries, scanning and bagging items efficiently, and promoting Target's loyalty programs and current promotions. Guest Advocates also play an active role in supporting digital services like Order Pick Up and Drive Up, ensuring smooth and pleasant shopping experiences.

The role demands a service-oriented mindset, flexibility in work hours including nights, weekends, and holidays, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced retail environment. Team members must demonstrate knowledge of store capabilities and policies, assist with resolving guest concerns, and contribute to maintaining a safe and orderly store environment. This position provides valuable skills and practical experience in customer service, sales, and retail operations, fostering career growth opportunities within Target or the broader retail industry.

Target offers competitive starting wages at $17.75 per hour for On-Demand Team Members, alongside various benefits spanning financial well-being, education, health, and overall work-life balance. Interested candidates are encouraged to explore eligibility and detailed benefits information through the company's official career portal. Target is committed to making reasonable accommodations for applicants with disabilities in compliance with ADA guidelines, ensuring an inclusive hiring process.

Overall, the On-Demand Team Member/Guest Advocate role at Target combines flexibility, meaningful guest engagement, and comprehensive support to help team members succeed, making it a compelling opportunity for those looking to join a renowned retail leader with a dedication to people and community.
