    Archived Industries?

    Hey guys I've been skimming through this section of the forum lately, and I was curious. For those of you who are working around student schedules; have any of you left Target for non-retail jobs? If so, what positions and how did you find them? What are your opinions? I'm keeping my eyes...

    Archived Internal to Intern? Process?

    Hey friends, I was hoping to get a little information from you. What does the process of becoming an intern look like when you're a current team member? Who do you interview with/how do you apply/did you get an assignment near your home/school? Etc etc. Also, what does it take to become an...

    Archived Guess whaaaat.

    For those of you who remember me, I'm back. ;) I interviewed the other day for a new store, and just heard back on my background check & orientation date! Can't wait to get back up to speed with target and see what I've missed!

    Archived I'm a guest

    Well, I'm a guest now. My new TL position wasn't a good fit for me; there was nothing open at my old store, and I wasn't going step down only to commute 45 minutes every day to be a team member, so i put in my notice. It looks like I'm going for a degree now. ;) I'll probably still browse the...

    Archived Leadership Scheduling

    Quick question for everybody! I tried searching on the forum but couldn't quite get the wording right for any useful results... How do your leadership teams write their schedules? There's obviously an LOD rotation, but do the rest of your leaders rotate somehow as well? Specifically your...

    Archived Team leader AND full time student?

    Does anybody here have experience with being a full time college student AND team leader (obviously full time, too) ? Was it manageable? Stress levels? opinions? Would you recommend it?

    Archived GSTL questions.

    Hey everyone, quick questions! I'm sure this is on the forums already, but I wasn't able to search for the right answers I was looking for. So if there's already a huge thread on this I didn't find, just let me know ;) 1) How much off-site time do GSTL's in your store typically give themselves...

    Archived AP Stops..

    So as a few of you might know, I've been trying to get into AP again.. I'm not a very bulky person, and was just wondering if that's a key component in being in AP (Specifically an APL/APTL.) Handling irate guests isn't a problem for me, and I have no issue coming between the guest and the exit...

    Archived SuperTarget food TL positions?

    Are there any team leads around that have been in food (deli, bakery, etc) team leader positions at SuperTargets? I'm sort of on the fence about taking one; mostly because it'd be quite a drive for a department supervisor position, but also because i've never worked in a food/deli/bakery/etc...

    Archived Service Desk rant

    Does anybody else get infuriated by how guests react towards the subject of giftcards at guest service? Whether it's a no-receipt return, a return on a check payment, or really anything; whenever a gift card or store credit is mentioned as a form of reimbursement, the guests immediately act...

    Archived applebee's?

    does anybody have any experience working at Applebee's restaurants? or have any insight? I'm thinking about applying to do hosting, serving, and/or bartending. Consistency of hours? Workplace culture? Anything else? Even any experiences with similar chains/franchises? I've done some research...

    Archived Caribou Coffee?

    Does anybody have any experience working at Caribou Coffee? If so, what's it like? I applied for a couple assistant store manager positions, and one shift supervisor position, and am trying to get an idea of what I might be jumping into.. Not every company is lucky enough to have a third-party...

    Archived GSTL key holder?

    I saw something interesting that I thought was worth posting about.. I tried searching the forums but didn't have any luck. One of our guest service team leads always has a GSTL key on her personal keychain. That got me thinking, is this something that's fairly common or no? Has anyone else...

    Archived low volume GSTL vs high volume GSTL?

    I've been curious about this... What separates a GSTL position at a ULV store from a GSTL position at a higher volume store? I work at a ULV now, but i've never worked in a high volume store. Do you usually have GSA's schedule (as GSA) in addition to yourself? How much backstage time do you...

    Archived Huddle Huddle Huddle

    I thought this might be an interesting thread.. Where do your teams/stores have their huddles? We usually have morning flow huddle in domestics, non-truck days we have huddle in electronics or intimates (super zoning bra's, wahoo!), and even huddle is usually up at the check lanes. What about...

    Archived Do associates degrees count for anything?

    Hello! In an effort to try keeping this anonymous, as many of my peers brows this forum now, I'm going to keep it short and be very sparse on details... I'm nearing my associates degree (planning to transfer and continue on for a more specific bachelors degree.) In the mean time, are there any...

    Archived Another interview thread

    I have an interview scheduled with our APBP next week.. Any ideas as to what is should be expecting, or be prepared for? I did a little prepping with my STL but any information you guys have would be great to hear. This thread and my inbox are both open!

    Archived Stores and Key-carriers

    Something i've ben curious about since I heard two ETL's talking about it the other day.. Who are all of your key carriers? (Because I believe there's a minimum of 8 'required', right?) mine: Only 7, as far as I know? STL ETL-LOG ETL-GE ETL-HR SrTL-Sales Floor SrTL-Sales Floor Presentation TL...

    Archived eHR/Workbench experts?

    I'm just curious about seeing what TL job opportunities are available in other locations, and was wondering if there's a way to look at that on eHR or workbench? I wouldn't dare apply for one on eHR out of the blue without consulting my ETL, but I just want to get an idea of what's available...

    Archived Quick question regarding SFT!

    My STL and I were working together today and she had been asking me about what TL positions I'd want to move into (so I'm assuming she has a scheme in mind)... GSTL, softlines , APL, flow, and SFT(?) we're brought up during the conversation. I guess my question here is; is SFT considered a "team...
