Are you able to use your employee discount on top of the red card discount? How about using the discount along with other deals like the circle app ? I’ve noticed at checkout it doesn’t apply both

I was told on the phone yesterday but I got nervous and forgot . Just to be safe should I just go in a red shirt and khakis? Or is casual okay?

A few questions ! This is my first job so I’m kind of nervous -I only have a pair of white shoes that are good to work in is that fine with dress code ? -I was spoken with over the phone about orientation but I was given a day but wasn’t given a time is there a specific time I’m supposed to...

Hi there !! I just had a quick question ...I’ve been recently hired on to the team very excited ! So I was told that my orientation date would be 10/30 (day before Halloween) and I was curious because I’ve heard so many different things ..... will my training/ start date be the following day...

I am a relatively new employee, and I'm trying to pick up some extra shifts this week to support myself. Is there a place (online or in the store itself) where employees from my store can post shifts that they are giving up? I vaguely remember my trainer saying something about a place online but...

I'd really enjoy specifics. I know I'm gonna be walking all around the store and such. But what should I expect on the day to day?

I'm a new TM at my store. I'm just curious to know how long training usually lasts. I'm in beauty if that helps any but so far I had 3 consecutive days last week of training. 1 was as a cashier for 1hr. Then this week I only have 2 days, one where I am closing. I was hoping next week I'd get...

Hey guys, I started working for Target in Sept. 2015. I turned in two weeks notice in May 2016. My official last day was planned for the first week of June. However, I didn't commit to a full 2 weeks notice. I got really frustrated and overwhelmed with drama at the store (big reason why I...

Hey guys this is my first time working in retail and a first timer here at TBR. I am a seasonal Guest Advocate and i just had my orientation on Monday and had some time at the register. Going in for my 2nd day tomorrow so here’s to hoping

Hi There! I recently joined Target earlier in the summer & got very limited decent training. Pretty much got only an hour of training, was "thrown to the wolves" pretty quickly, and still ask a lot of my coworkers/team lead questions about any & everything. So I got coaching/written up today...

Hi, so I'm a fairly new member of the beauty consultant team as well as new to the breakroom. I'm already exhausted with the amount of work and apps/processes I have to learn. Asking for tips from other beauty TMs or just TMs in general that have knowledge on confusing stuff like POGs and Audits...

Tips for a new cashier employee?

Hello everyone. I'm new here. Just started electronics; I came from mobile. I'm very much into electronics and consider myself a nerd lol. I'm inspired to make my department the best it can be and fix some of the issues I saw while I was a mobile team member, such as a lot of items being out of...

So, I got hired on December 20th. They told me they might not have orientation this week, which is understandable because of the holidays. However, I'm kind of stressed about it because I have rent and bills and need to start working asap. Just wanted to ask others how long it took you to get...

My first day was today. I was put on inbound. 6:30-11. So I helped w the line (?) sorting boxes from the conveyor belt. First off it was so hot I couldn’t breath. Second some of the boxes were way too heavy for me to lift to the top shelf of the cart. I started feeling like a panic attack was...

I have soooo many questions and before I start, i’ve just gotten hired and my orientation is tomorrow. Oh, and I’m also a minor so fun! 1. Not a question but I haven’t gotten my school to sign my school authorization paper since it was the weekend and tomorrow we have it off due to veterans day...

I was hired Wednesday and will be working in “pick up”. I keep wanting to call it site to store. 🤦🏾‍♀️😂 My mother works for spot’s competitor, they wear blue and khaki. I found this site on Wednesday because I started googling about orientation. I’ve read every orientation thread on here. My...

I will be working softlines but I have a lengthy shift in cashier training come up, and I have a few questions: 1) Can you keep a bottle of water and/or coffee with you at the cashiers? 2) What about unobtrusive snacks? 3) Do they keep hand sanitizer for cashiers? I imagine after touching all...
