Hiring percentile by month
What the numbers say
Target is in the 24th hiring percentile in April 2026, hiring slower than most employers. The 12-month change is -10 pts since April 2025 — sharply down.
Looking at people moving in and out over the 36 months to March 2026, Target's balance of joins versus leaves is better than at 23% of US employers in the panel. More people are leaving relative to joining than at most US employers. We rank this balance inside the month rather than showing raw net flow, because newer résumés reveal joins with a delay and raw counts understate recent hiring everywhere.
Within Consumer Staples, the median employer in our US panel is in the 49th hiring percentile, so Target is below its sector peers this month.
About 16% of the career moves we observe at Target are in tech roles.
These figures come from 6,417 job changes in public résumé histories over a rolling 36-month window, not from job postings. Postings show intent; résumé histories show who actually joined. The data is updated monthly and currently runs through April 2026.
