Warehouse Associate

June - August 2019 • Fontana, CA

What I liked

I liked how I only worked three days a week and I would have 4 days off. The workload was pretty straightforward and I got the hang of it real quick.

What I wish was different

I worked 12 hour shifts for each scheduled day and i wish they gave me the option of doing at least 8 hour shifts per day. I also wish the managers wouldn't pressure you to keep a high scan rate.

Advice

If you can handle 12 hour shifts and work quick enough to keep a high scan rate, you can make a hefty paycheck each week by working only 3 days.

Target Fulfillment Team Member

July - October 2019 • San Ramon, CA

What I liked

One thing I liked about my experience working at Target is the positive interactions I would have with the guests who were shopping. Being a fulfillment team member, I was constantly on my feet and navigating the store and looking for the items guests purchased. As a result, guest interactions were inevitable and I was always pleased to help make others' shopping experience enjoyable. More often than not, guests were delighted with my services and in return were very kind to me making my job pleasant.

What I wish was different

One thing I wish would have been different from my time at Target was the turn around time from when I received my conditional job offer and when I actually started working. The time in between these two was about two weeks. I wish I could have started working sooner and that Target was more prompt with reaching back to me in between interviews.

Advice

One piece of advice about my experience working at Target is to hold value in your interactions you have with your co-workers, guests, and executive team leaders. These connections can lead to future opportunities that may reap benefits.
