Lots to cover...anywho, we get a lot of kids straight out of high school, so no experience necessary, and any equipment training needed is done on-site. The assessment is for Outbound and Inbound dept's only, but if you can make it up several flights of stairs w/o passing out, you should be fine.
I really can't outline a general day without more specifics, cause the daily routines differ for each dept. and which key (Target-ese for shift) you work.
There are five keys:
- A1: 0600-1800 Sat, Sun, Mon
- A2: 1800-0600 Sat, Sun, Mon
- B1: 0600-1600 Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri
- B2: 1600-0200 Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri
- B3: 2100-0700 (I think?) Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri
Most start A2, then move around to the other keys as openings arise. Generally speaking, B1 is the most envied key. B3 is for FacOps (our maintenance dept.) only
As to what you will do, that varies for each dept. There are several roles within each dept, but to start new hires on, Outbound has guys loading trailer, Inbound will have you working ART (where you unload trailers and prepare pallets and carts of freight to be stored), MBP and Warehouse will have you picking cartons in an order picker, and Packing will have you cutting open cartons and putting sale units in a repack box to be shipped to the store.
And can't say much about NY other than if it's Wilton, congrats on being so close to the ADK's, and if it's Amsterdam, I'm sorry (town has an unsavory reputation as 'AmsteRICO')
