Many of our guests prefer the speed and control of completing their own transactions. The Self-Checkout Attendant is the crucial host of this high-volume zone, ensuring that the technology works smoothly and that guests never feel abandoned. When you embark on an entry-level career in retail jobs with Target, you are joining a tech-enabled, fast-paced environment where your vigilance and hospitality shine.

Job Summary

You will serve as an active host, delivering the signature joy and efficiency that sets Target apart in the retail industry. This is a highly active role perfect for those who love multitasking and moving around rather than standing behind a single register.

Comprehensive Responsibilities

• Active Hosting: Greet guests as they enter the SCO (Self-Checkout) area, directing them to open registers and managing the queue during peak rushes.
• Transaction Assistance: Step in proactively to help guests scan large or heavy items, remove electronic security tags, and look up fresh produce codes.
• Intervention & Troubleshooting: Respond rapidly to machine alerts (e.g., scale errors, ID verification for age-restricted items) to keep transactions moving without frustration.
• Asset Protection Support: Maintain a vigilant presence, ensuring all items in a guest's cart are properly scanned before they bag them and exit.

• Salary: Competitive starting pay of $15.50 to $18.50 per hour.
• Exclusive Discounts: Enjoy a permanent 10% discount at Target stores and Target.com, plus an additional 20% discount on wellness products.
• Debt-Free Education: Access to our Guild Education program, offering tuition-free undergraduate and certificate programs.
• Health Coverage: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for eligible team members.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Must be at least 18 years of age upon application (due to age-restricted item verification responsibilities).
• No prior retail or cashier experience required—we provide extensive systems training.
• Must possess an incredibly friendly, outgoing personality and the ability to multitask in a loud, busy environment.
• Ability to walk and stand continuously within the SCO zone for the duration of the shift.
