    Partner considering going back to Target as a VM

    Thanks for all the feedback - sounds like the role would be a great fit with a fairly decent schedule. She had an in-person interview today that went well and an interview at another store next week so hoping one of them works out!

    Partner considering going back to Target as a VM

    Not afraid of heights at all...she used to climb ladders to do showroom VM stuff (including adjusting lighting), so pretty normal stuff for her.

    Partner considering going back to Target as a VM

    Also, would a VM normally be guaranteed full-time hours, or are they considered to be just like a TM?

    Partner considering going back to Target as a VM

    My wife was a Style Team Lead for 3 years and then over the last couple of years has worked at a few other retail stores (smaller, assistant manager type positions). She's considering going back to Target in a VM role (she has plenty of retail experience, including as a VM in other types of...

    Archived Transfer to Target corporate position

    My spouse has been a SL TL for the past 2 1/2 years and would like to move up to a job in Target corporate HQ (we're located in the Minneapolis metro area). Anyone know what the policy is for a transfer like that? She has the experience but it seems to be a challenge to get the store to offer...

    Archived Vacation Pay-out in Minnesota

    My spouse is a TL at a store in MN. Anyone know if Target pays out earned vacation in Minnesota if someone voluntarily leaves (and gives proper notice)? Thanks.

    Archived Stacking red card + TM discount

    Ummmm... Maybe you should take your own advice. The math above both come to 72 cents no matter which way you so it.

    Archived Applying for Corporate Positions

    My spouse is employed at a Target store as a SLTL (18 months in) and found a position at corporate that she'd like to apply for. Does she need to go through internal HR to apply or can she just go on the public Target careers website and apply? Thanks!

    Archived Target Wallet

    Yes, it shows the Red Card (last 4 digits) setup as the payment type. I did try scanning a 2nd time (can't remember in what screen), but it displayed a dialog about the wallet already being applied to the sale, so not sure why it won't process without the card.

    Archived Target Wallet

    Tried using it twice so far at self checkout with no success...scanned all items, scanned barcode and hit "pay" but it takes me to the screen to select payment type (card, cash, etc.). I hit card but then it prompts me to put my red card into the card reader. It does apply the discounts...

    Archived Possible topics at Fall National Meeting

    Funny, as a Target customer I actually like the music playing in the store. Makes it feel more "upscale".

    Archived Insurance Costs for 2017 ?

    Anyone have the PDF file with the insurance costs for 2017? Our daughter just turned 26 and is off our insurance now so want to see if we should make any changes (combining with spouse, etc.) I had a copy of it but can't seem to find it now.

    Archived Vacation Denied?

    She was able to get it resolved. Apparently her ETL never even looked at it when creating the schedule so it auto-denied.

    Archived Vacation Denied?

    Yeah sort of...lots of favoritism among other things.

    Archived Vacation Denied?

    I believe it was an LOD shift but those are consistent (she's had more or less the exact same schedule for the past year, including LOD shifts). So you can't ever take a vacation day on an LOD shift? She checked and there was already 2 other TL's working that night so no reason one of them...
