The company is driven by values that support inclusivity, diversity, and sustainability, creating a positive work environment and a rewarding shopping experience for guests. Working at Target means joining a vibrant, fast-paced retail environment that prides itself on meaningful team member experiences and the opportunity for career development and growth. Employees are valued for their contributions to the company's mission of delivering high-quality goods and services while engaging with guests in a friendly and professional manner.

The On-Demand Team Member position at Target offers a unique opportunity for individuals seeking flexibility in their work schedule while being part of a dynamic retail team. With a starting hourly rate of $16.00 USD, this role suits those who want to work as much or as little as they like, picking shifts that best fit their lifestyle through the myTime mobile scheduling app. On-Demand Team Members do not have a fixed weekly schedule but can select available shifts posted by store leaders or fellow team members. This position is ideal for students, parents, or anyone looking for a personalized and adaptable job that balances work with other life priorities.

As an On-Demand Team Member, communication skills and reliability are critical, as team members must attend at least one shift every four weeks, with minimum shift lengths of four hours.

New hires undergo a Target Welcome orientation and a structured short-term training plan to ensure they are fully equipped to deliver excellent guest service and support store operations effectively.

The core focus of this role is to enhance the guest experience by warmly welcoming guests, assisting with their needs, and performing tasks that facilitate smooth store operations. Key responsibilities include operating cash registers, efficiently scanning and bagging items, explaining loyalty programs and store services, managing returns and exchanges, and supporting digital sales and fulfillment services such as order pick-up and Drive Up. On-Demand Team Members contribute directly to creating a clean and welcoming store environment, ensuring safety compliance, and representing Target's service culture consistently.

The role also empowers team members to engage guests with product knowledge, promote marketing initiatives, and resolve customer issues promptly and courteously. Flexibility is a pivotal attribute as shifts may occur during nights, weekends, holidays, and other peak retail periods. Target emphasizes teamwork, safety, ethics, and professional development, providing comprehensive training to build skills relevant to retail and customer service careers. Successful candidates thrive in fast-moving environments where attention to detail, multi-tasking, and positive communication help deliver exceptional and efficient service.

Overall, this position at Target is perfect for individuals eager to develop customer service skills, enjoy varied work schedules, and become part of a supportive team culture that values diversity, inclusion, and employee growth. With competitive pay and access to a broad range of benefits, On-Demand Team Members help uphold Target's reputation as a preferred shopping destination while advancing their personal and professional goals.
