    Archived Leadership Expectations etc.

    Alright so a friend of mine is applying for GSA, and I want to help her prep for her interview as much as possible, help her get the lingo down and whatnot. Anyone know if Leadership Expectations is available online? Along with the other paperwork that you receive. I know it's available on...

    Archived can i void missed salvage?

    On the Audit list just write 1 instead of 2, which is fine.

    Archived New position

    As far as responsibilities go, that sounded a lot like a GSA position. Cash office, watching lanes, getting blinkers etc. usually is what a GSA does (among other things). I'm guessing your ETL wants you to move up within the Front End, while your ETL HL wants you to be Cosmetics Brand . If...

    Archived Steps to selling a Target Red Card?

    Ah so your store allows the Debit card to be ran thru to apply..that'd be very convenient.. Anyways basically just follow onscreen prompts. Most stores require a blank check to sign up for the Target Debit Card, however as your store has, can use the debit card itself to apply. As far as the...

    Archived GSA to TL?

    Wondering if one were to go from GSA to a TL if it would require a store transfer. Do all TL promotions require this? Our PATL was our Signing Specialist prior and managed to promote up within our store.. basically wondering what are the guidelines in which they transfer you for a TL spot...

    Archived Gift Registry Kiosk

    Yup. Top Right, Top Left. Might have to do it a few times, cause the screen config is never 100%. I believe it's in the Guest Service training book as well, could be different for your store. The technician who works on the registry computers came in one day and was hitting all four corners so...

    Archived My interview with Target

    The assessment takes 10 minutes tops, and it is on the application kiosk where you may have applied prior. Nothing to be worried about.

    Archived Curios Question - Fights and Confrontations

    Depends on the severity. Typically, the one who initiates the fight is on final warning, and if you hit back you're on CA. In my store, at least.

    Archived Speculation: Something's changing at the Service Desk

    This balance you speak of.. I wish I could find it. My ETLs (and STL) are like Gods. Their offices have glass windows on our 2nd story that overlook the check lanes. If they see something they don't like they'll start going on the walkies. SEND GUEST TO LANE 2 NOW, NOW NOW NOW.

    Archived Speculation: Something's changing at the Service Desk

    When we remodeled we received 12 3-tier carts. Backroom stole 5 so we're down to 7. Some stores have a wall to block reshop.. however we don't have enough space to accomodate. So we look like Wal-Mart behind GS. The tub chills behind GS, fills up with defectives that we process before close each...

    Archived Speculation: Something's changing at the Service Desk

    You make a good point. I do share your likes about it. My ETLs are very particular about constant guest flow to IGS though. Even when I tell my ETLs that GS TM's aren't keeping up on routine, they spit out "Well, best practice is to always assist guests". I find myself auditing defectives at...

    Archived Speculation: Something's changing at the Service Desk
