Target

Executive Team Leader Intern

July - August 2020 • Foothill Ranch, CA

What I liked

Great team and mentors, everyone was really invested in my success.

What I wish was different

I wish I had been able to get the full 10 week experience. It was shortened to 6 weeks due to Covid.

Advice

Everyone gave me the same advice: make the experience yours. In other words, if I wanted to have a good experience and learn something, I needed to ask questions and volunteer for things and put myself out there.

What I liked

I loved everyone on my team! They were all incredibly kind, hardworking, and willing to lend a hand when needed.

What I wish was different

I wish our staffing situation would have been different. The store was almost always understaffed at the check-lanes and in the style department.

Advice

If you feel like you are having a hard time getting your work done for some reason (lack of staffing or other), say something to your team lead! They will almost always help you get it done.

What I liked

I appreciate the fun and friendly atmosphere of my Target! It is a pleasure to work with my team and the management has always been easy to work with. The job pays well and I have made great memories with my friends here!

What I wish was different

I wish that I would have spent more time working over my Summers there. I would often cut my hours short by limiting my time, but it is important to try to accumulate funds over the Summer to help pay for the school year. Try to make the most of your Summers by working and accumulating a savings.

Advice

Positivity is key with any new job. Do not allow a poor attitude to get in the way of an experience.

What I liked

My boss was very kind and understanding. The work was difficult enough to keep me entertained, but not overly so.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more hours over the summer.

Advice

Apply for a seasonal position first as you have a better chance of getting a job. Then if you are a good match you can keep working for them after the season.

What I liked

I really liked the environment and the flexibility of the scheduling. They worked with me to accommodate my school schedule.

What I wish was different

I wish that I had been able to train in different departments and expand my own skills more often.

What I liked

I love how i get engage with customers and help them find products that they need in my department. Since i work in beauty, i like to give customers a better idea on what products are better for your hair, skin and nails

What I wish was different

I dont wish anything was different, i have had a good experience thus far.

Advice

I would say that if you looking for a job that is more independent work and engaging in customer service target is a great fit for you. You learn a lot of new things about products and hands on experience with back-stocking and customer service skills.

Executive Team Lead Intern

July - August 2020 • Mountain View, CA

What I liked

It was very hands-on and I was lucky Target was able to offer an in-person experience to me.

What I wish was different

I of course wish we weren't in a pandemic and I didn't have to wear a mask during all of my shifts. But it was interesting to see how Target operates its business under an emergency plan.

Advice

Just be open to new experiences and point of views.

What I liked

my supervisors and coworkers are kind and helpful

What I wish was different

I wish I could accrue sick time before being hired beyond just a seasonal position, which I was told I likely would be. I was injured outside of work and I am worried about taking so much time off.
