    Archived Applying for a "higher" position as TL

    As someone that has spent lots of time interviewing for many tech companies lately, I would highly recommend not disclosing that you're interviewing for anything. It's typically viewed as unprofessional. When/if you are offered a job, then go through the steps of resignation or promotion. This...

    Archived Has anyone see a GSTL/GSA be termed or performanced out?

    Yeah. I've personally done it to a GSA. He really wasn't meant for the position and he was there when I was promoted to GSTL. I think we got him on sense of urgency mainly. I had nothing against him, he just wasn't meant to be GSA. He couldn't handle the guests, is now really doing well as a...

    Archived Counterfeit bills?

    As a GSTL, this is best addressed by making your own training material. Partner with your AP on this if you'd like, but we have a packet we made. There's some basic fraud awareness guides that cashiers have to read in addition to the shitty training from Target. We had a total of 1 fake $100...

    Archived Just Hired Externally as GSTL

    In all reality, I really wish at least two of my GSAs had the power to at least start documentation or even pull team members off the floor for conversations.

    Archived Just got hired as a GSA

    @myDevice Coming back from whatever time later, another important life skill concerning how to be a good leader: learn to make good decisions quickly God I used to struggle with this a lot when I first started as a baby GSA. You'll need to make some decisions that affect how your...

    Archived Gstl Routines

    Honestly, sometimes I miss cashiering. That's what I originally started with, but I would love to not have to worry about other people occasionally.

    Archived Refusal to Interview?

    My experience there has been the exact opposite. I told them I would have my degree in 2 years and they could expect me gone when I had it (software development pays a little more >.>). Buuut, I told them that for the duration of my time, I would strive to do the best I possibly can and would...

    Archived Year in review self review

    I hate reviews with an absolute burning passion. Honestly, review in general are just the worst. Talk about your wins, how did this success aid in the long term? If you identified opportunities last year, did you improve on them this year? How? Provide examples. Talk about your opportunities...

    Archived Just got hired as a GSA

    Adding onto this though, sometimes I'm willing to take a bad survey rather than skirt policy. Example: If a guest doesn't have their ID and wants to pick up 5 Apple Watches, they're out of luck. Feel free to call Guest Relations. If the item is just something off the floor and say $5 and you...

    Archived Just got hired as a GSA

    Change your perspective on what it means to be a manager (leader) in general You are less important than your team, your leaders are less important than you (don't talk down), and their leaders are less important than them (etc.) When working, ask yourself, "Can my team function if I would...

    Archived Our former VMTL is still acting like a TL...

    I'm really in a weird place with this change for our store. Our VMTL (now VM...TM?) was damn good. They kept their team accountable and really started driving our softlines team towards doing better. We had a major (RVP) visit and he said our brand was the best he's ever seen in that area. He...

    Archived Are GSAs held up to the same expectations as GSTLs at your store?

    We're pretty equal. My team relies solely on banter though. It's actually a decent atmosphere.

    Archived Development and Coding for Target

    I'm not terribly interested in becoming an ETL. My ETLs work well over 40 hours a week and don't really get paid enough to do what they do (my opinion). By becoming a TL, I think that it would show initiative that I was already interested in growing with my company before I advanced in their...

    Archived Development and Coding for Target

    That's exactly what I've heard! I'm majoring in computer science with a focus in C++ programming and SQL databases. I'm also 2 semesters away from completing my other major. Additionally, I just completed several informatics (literally the science of information processing and systems). I think...

    Archived Development and Coding for Target

    Hey guys! I've been lurking on these forums for a better part of a year and I have a few questions for you all! I've been with Target for over 3 years while I'm working on getting a degree in Computer Science and semi recently, Sr TLs, my ETL HR, and partly my STL have been having some...
