    Resources for Humans (An HR Thread)

    It might be socially irresponsible to bring more people into a higher risk workforce and allow for more potential exposure and spread. On the other hand, if you can hire some of the displaced workers temporarily from other service industries, food/restaurants, airlines, production jobs, etc...

    if I'm graduating with a BA in May, when can I apply for ETL positions?

    Internship is for current college students for the summer between their junior and senior years. Can stay on as an extended intern during their senior year if they do well during the summer, there’s room in the budget, and Target wants to offer them an ETL role upon graduation. Current TMs are...

    Greener Pastures Post Spot?

    I still pop in here and lurk from time to time just to see how things are going. It’s tough to see so many vets have left and it’s hard to hear some of the stories of how things work (or don’t) now. Target has always had issues with systems and process inefficiencies, but I honestly feel like...

    Greener Pastures Post Spot?

    It was definitely a strategic move when I asked for HR as an ETL role. A lot is the same across all industries, but it’s such a different feel being corporate versus operational HR. There’s a lot I miss about stores, but getting to work on bigger things has been really rewarding. Even my 10...

    Greener Pastures Post Spot?

    I left Target about a year and a half ago as an ETL without a plan. Couldn’t deal with the the lunacy of incompetent leaders, constantly changing expectations and communication, and the state of stores due to all of it. Wanted to get out of retail and sort of did...ended up doing HR at an Amazon...

    MEGATHREAD 2018-2019 Store Modernization Megathread

    Not all stores are alarm set-lights off. Only stores that are on this program do it. I was LOd for two different stores. One lights off and one lights on. Even when they stay on it’s just the overheads and just at like 25-50%. One store was overnight, but when they switched to 4am, we still left...

    Resources for Humans (An HR Thread)

    Don’t let them use forms. All missing punches should be submitted through my time. Only exceptions would be for bereavement. (Unless something changed since I left...but TMs should know how to log into eHR and submit a missing punch. That’s just standard work).

    Archived I Missed my Orientation. How bad is that?

    I totally agree with this. Yes, HR makes the actual offer, but the decision to offer or turndown should be on the hiring manager (TL/ETL interviewing...who should also be the person the TM is going to be working for). I always had my team give input if the candidate was rude in person or on...

    Archived Just a number in a huge corporation!

    You should’ve been informed directly by Target leave and disability if your leave was approved or denied. If you filled out paperwork to initiate a leave then they should’ve been in contact with you. You would’ve been in consistent contact with your case admin and needed to provide documentation...

    And this is the difference between saying you want to deliver a great guest experience and actually delivering a great guest experience. You can’t have stellar guest service and optimally efficient logistics if you aren’t willing to make the payroll, training, and performance management...

    Logistics The Flow/Inbound thread: Until We Yeet Again edition 🤙

    Yeah not totally understanding the new unload process, but we were playing around with custom blocks over a year ago and turning them into 3-4 aisles to make them more manageable for one person. Uboats were never a problem for my team. We started using them throughout the store even before...

    Archived Perimeter check

    HR should be adding it on as a paycode in my time for your LOD closings and for anytime you are the first one in the building early morning.
