Job Description

Target is a leading retail corporation known for its commitment to providing exceptional customer service and offering a wide variety of quality products at competitive prices. Established as a household name across the United States, Target emphasizes creating a positive shopping experience that delights guests and builds customer loyalty through its various store formats and digital platforms. The company prides itself on fostering an inclusive culture where team members feel valued, empowered, and engaged. Working at Target means contributing to a vision where families can enjoy the joy of everyday life through convenient, reliable, and friendly service.

This opportunity is for the position of On-Demand Guest Advocate, a role designed to offer flexibility and autonomy in scheduling while delivering excellent guest service. As an On-Demand Team Member at Target, you have the chance to work according to your availability by choosing shifts that fit your lifestyle through the myTime mobile scheduling app. This role is ideal for individuals who prefer a personalized work schedule and the flexibility to balance work and personal commitments. On-Demand Guest Advocates are essential in creating memorable experiences for guests by welcoming, assisting, and exceeding service expectations across various store functions including checkout lanes, guest services, order pick-up, and drive-up.

The hourly starting rate for this position is $18.00 USD, making it a competitive wage option for part-time or flexible work seekers. Although shift availability may vary, the role requires active engagement, such as picking up and working shifts regularly and maintaining prompt and reliable attendance. Target also provides comprehensive training and orientation to ensure every On-Demand Guest Advocate is well-prepared to succeed in their role, emphasizing ethical conduct, safety, and compliance.

As a Guest Advocate, no two days are the same, as the role combines customer interaction, problem solving, service promotion, and operational tasks. Members are expected to embody a service culture that prioritizes guest satisfaction by greeting guests warmly, assisting with purchases, efficiently processing transactions, and promoting Target's loyalty programs and digital services. Additionally, the role involves maintaining a clean and organized work area, helping with stocking supplies, and supporting cash office processes as necessary.

Target values team members who enjoy helping others and thrive in active, fast-paced environments where teamwork, flexibility, and creative problem-solving are key to success. Candidates with strong communication skills, a welcoming attitude, attention to detail, and the ability to multitask efficiently will find this role rewarding. Physical capabilities such as lifting up to 44 pounds occasionally and the ability to remain mobile throughout a shift are important, as some tasks include handling merchandise and assisting with curbside services.

Overall, an On-Demand Guest Advocate at Target not only contributes to creating a welcoming shopping environment but also gains valuable skills that support long-term career growth within a supportive and dynamic retail environment. Prospective team members can expect a role that encourages continuous learning, engagement with the community, and a pathway to further advancement within the company.
