Experience firsthand what it's like to lead a retail team within a Target store. This internship is a paid 40 hr / week, hands-on training program to develop and prepare for your store leadership. As a Stores Executive Intern, you will get a valuable realistic preview of the Executive Team Leader role (Assistant Store Manager) over a defined period of time. Within this store management internship, you will work closely with other managers and team members to develop an understanding of how Target's retail business works and what it takes to excel in a management role. You will be introduced to multiple areas of the store's business, but the majority of your time will be spent leading amongst the team, identifying and working towards store priorities, and delivering great guest service. This program is designed to teach individuals how to lead within a retail store amongst the store team :

  • You'll learn about how to drive guest experience and how to impact your store's financial, team, and operational performance.
  • You'll work alongside a mentor and learn how they effectively lead their department within the store.
  • You will have the opportunity to step into leading your Mentors departments- of course, we will be there to guide you and help you learn along the way!
  • You will spend your days learning to lead and motivate a team, drive sales results, merchandise products, and provide an exceptional experience for our guests.
  • Your development will be a top priority of ours, and to ensure you're feeling supported, you can expect ongoing developmental conversations.
