We want to make the process of submitting a resume or completing an application online as personable as possible. With that in mind, we have briefly outlined our general staffing process for all of our businesses. These are the possible steps that a qualified candidate can expect when going through our selection process.

For Professional & Salaried Positions

  • Submit your resume online at www.searsholdings.com/careers.
  • Each of our businesses has a team of specialized recruiters trained to identify the best candidates. Our recruiters will review every resume and will contact the most qualified candidates.
  • Depending on business and location, a phone screen is usually the first step in the selection process. This phone screen is usually conducted by one of our recruiters, another member of the human resources team, or a member of the hiring management team..
  • After a successful phone screen, a candidate can either expect to be invited for a personal interview or phone interview. Either selection event is usually conducted by members of the team or department under whom the position falls.
  • For some positions, an online assessment and/or a second personal interview may be requested.
  • Once all candidate interviews have been completed, our recruiters and hiring managers will review the results of the interviews and make a decision.
  • Each candidate will be contacted and informed whether or not they have received an offer. The offer will be dependent on the passing of a drug screen, background check, and proper I-9 documentation.

For Entry-level & Hourly Positions

  • Complete an application online at www.searsholdings.com/careers or at your local store or field location. During the application process, each candidate may be prompted to take an assessment.
  • Each store or field location has a Human Resource professional who will review your application and assessment. All qualified applicants will then be contacted to set up an interview.
  • A series of two interviews will be coordinated by members of management.
  • Upon completion of the interviews, management will make a hiring decision, and the applicant will be notified of the decision.
  • If a job offer is made, it will be contingent on the applicant passing a background check, drug screen (if applicable), and proper I-9 documentation.
