I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sears
Interview
The hiring process begins with completing the online application at the Sears website. The online application takes about 30 minutes to complete if you already have your resume and cover letter ready to go, and involves basic questions and scenario - based evaluations of how well you would function on the sales floor.
If your online interview goes well, it takes up to three weeks for you to hear back from the company requesting an interview. Be patient. Don't bother calling the company asking for your application's status- the managers at the store level will conduct your interview but they do not select hiring candidates to bring in for an interview. That is done by corporate.
If corporate likes you, they will schedule an interview for you at the store you applied to, which will be conducted by a store manager. If your interview goes well, they will contact you within a week to complete your paperwork and start training.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Sears (Philadelphia, PA) in Jun 2021
Interview
not a hard interview, asked about past experience, any experience with selling hardline staff, if not, that's all right. Talk to me about yourself, why you want to apply for sears?

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work here when you are obviously over qualified?
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sears (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2017
Interview
I was contacted very soon after I submitted my resume - approx 2 days. I was called in for an interview within the week, and met with a department manager and a senior manager. Both were very pleasant and not intimidating. Made me feel like a part of the team even before I was hired!
