If they have you pegged for a Team Lead position, you will probably be forwarded to the District leadership. Going to be situation questions. Have you ever dealt with an angry customer? Have you ever worked with a difficult co-worker? And what did you do in that situation.

You have to really know how your store is setup and what your getting into first. But tell your management and immediately show your interest in advancing to the TL level. Set up goals and document progression type stuff. I had 2 sets of store management that gave me the lesson plan to...

Back in the day....I rarely saw a TL get promoted to ETL. Most ETLs were recruited straight from Business schools or had previous retail management experience outside of Target. I saw maybe 1-2 TLs get promoted to ETLdirectly. Others tried to move up as Senior Team Leads but were never...

Passed Over - Plenty of times. Its typical for a store to hire a TM for a TL position from within its own store TL bench. The only time a store will hire from other stores or externally is not enough interest or not qualified. There is a process for getting on the TL bench. But you must...

I had a former GSTL go through the exact same thing. He went barhopping with no agenda and just happened to meet a number of TMs from the store; not even from this team. He bought a round of drinks and photos were taken. Some how the events got to management and they believe since he was a TL...

Yup. The hire from within mentality expired years ago. I had to train a number of my new hire GSTLs and FATLs.

I am more used to the old fashion Target way of providing guest service. I can't really comment on too much about the modernization process. Sometimes you just have to bite it and entertain your TLs and management. A new GSTL is just trying to get things established and learn the ropes so...

Should be fine. Target isn't splurging to provide a corporate car. If you are getting reimbursed, you will only get re-imbursed for your own expenses.

Unless its a blood relative or a close family relationship, Target doesn't care.

If you have no STL, the DTL should have a nearby store STL check in 1-2 times a week and handle issues as well. Integrity hotline doesn't mean instant termination. If enough complaints are submitted or enough issues are concentrated around one TM, then it will warrant an investigation...

Generally higher positions are not given out to minors. They may provide training or guidance for the position in preparation of you graduating HS. ASANTS - Preference is given to those enrolled in college or have a degree. To be put in consideration, you will need to buddy up to your GSTL and...

Just to let you know. ASANTS but it is very common practice that Execs have their top picks already made for the next open positions. No real interview process. They instantly promote the person. In such stores, you have to really impress your Execs or befriend them. Another tip is to get...

I think there would be Region and District visits along with 3rd party inspection. 3rd party inspections are supposed to be stricter and find more than county/state inspections.

Proceed with the advancement within Target. But apply to companies that are worthwhile of your degree. Just don't let your store know.

Without personally seeing your store environment, its hard to say. Try these questions. If you feel like your being railroaded and want a change, visit your other area stores and check for other store positions. But don't discuss transfer with anyone, not even at your store. If they get the...

When I transferred to my last store, I was qualified for all of the Front End +FA + GSTL support. I put in numerous times for available positions. Pretty much externals or friends of leadership were pushed. When I requested to get more Floor experience, it took over a year. My leadership's...

I think you answered your own question. ASANTS but YUP...for internal promotions its all about who you are friends with and who you kiss up to. Its been going on like this for at least the last 13 years. Target up to 2005 focused on promoting from within and rewarding TMs. After...

Talk to your TL and ETL and make sure they know you interest to advance. If you are on the Front, then go for GSA.
