Target’s North Atlanta Holiday Jobs Start at $16 to $16.25 an Hour

Target is accepting applications for seasonal, part-time work at stores in Cumming, Milton, Johns Creek and the Suwanee area, with starting wages of $16 to $16.25 an hour. The openings offer a way to earn extra holiday income, though applicants need availability that can include nights, weekends and holidays.

Recruitment covers checkout and customer service, stocking, online-order fulfillment, clothing, electronics, and food and beverage departments. All four store postings have a Dec. 10, 2026, application deadline.

Target provides training. The advertised qualifications emphasize customer service, attention to detail, teamwork and learning store technology, without specifying a college degree or previous retail experience. Physical requirements include climbing ladders and frequently lifting or moving merchandise weighing up to 40 pounds. corporate.target.com

That makes the recruitment relevant to people returning to work or seeking an additional source of income, provided the schedule and physical demands fit their circumstances.

The four postings cover multiple job types but do not establish how many people each store will hire. They also do not specify guaranteed weekly hours or a seasonal assignment’s end date. Applicants should resolve those questions before building the expected earnings into a household budget.

For someone balancing another job, school or caregiving, the number and timing of shifts may matter more than the 25-cent difference in starting pay. Ask which departments are hiring, what holiday availability is required and whether the store can accommodate existing commitments.

Applications are available through the store links above. Each official job page includes an Apply button leading to Target’s recruiting platform.
