Sears hr

I applied online for a Fulltime position. I arrived early for my interview. They seemed to be dissatisfied with this . The manger introduced himself and said that I was early and would have to wait. This was fine because I was. A young lady called me in never told me her name or position. The interview was horrible. She asked nothing about my sales experience or anything. I respectfully complimented her and she rolled her eyes.Instead of being respectful and confident. I have over 15years management experience and I believe they sent out a CSR to interview me due to lack of being organized. She told me within less than a minute that they did not hire FULLTIME that they only hired PART TIME? I would have never applied for a part time position . I could not believe that my app was not taken more seriously and the fact that they did not try to sell themselves as a company or anything . I was more of pls sit down what hours are you looking for and we only hire part time .OMG! She saw my eye brows raise and said well...should I go on or is this interview over. Wow!(OVER!) I can not imagine what customer service is like there . I guess they want to keep their own job security... by running out the advancer.

You dodged a bullet. Definitely. Feel lucky you didn't find all this out after working there for a month. I did the same thing with them. From the time I was waiting till the end of the exstensive interview. I THEN was told there isn't any positions but we will keep your resume. Could have told me that off the bat. - P.S. you should post which Sears it was.

Sears hvac service

Sears Home Improvement scheduled an all day appointment 8-5, to service my HVAC. The technician did not show up. When I called to inquire about the technician, I was told they do not service my area or this part of the country for that matter. I scheduled the appointment on June 9 for the service call for June 23, the company issued a memo on June 14 that they no longer had a technician in this area or this part of the country any longer. NO ONE CALLED TO CANCEL THE APPOINTMENT. I lost a days wage! Do they care? Absolutely not. I will never shop at Sears or any of their affiliates ever again.

Sears what a joke!!!

In February of 2011, we purchased an elliptical trainer from Sears. My husband and I (well, my husband more than me) put it together. I immediately started using it and used it 4-5 times per week for approximately a month and a half. The last time I used it was on a Thursday (in April of 2011), and it worked fine. When I went to use it the following Sunday (in April of 2011), it was completely locked up. Luckily (or so I thought), I had purchased the master protection agreement. I obtained the necessary information and called Sears within 2 days to schedule a repair appointment. Approximately 10 days later, a repair person showed up to fix the elliptical, only to tell us that parts needed to be ordered for it. He ordered the parts, and we were forced to reschedule our repair appointment.

Approximately 10 days to 2 weeks later, the repair person again showed up to fix our elliptical only to discover the parts that Sears shipped were the wrong ones. We were again forced to reschedule our service appointment. This time, the repair person ordered 3 different parts in the hopes Sears would ship the correct part to fix the machine. Our repair appointment grew closer and we still hadn't received all of the parts; only I didn't know this. I called Sears the day before our appointment and the customer service rep assured me we still had a repair appointment scheduled for the following day. I had to work, so my mother stayed at our house the next morning waiting on the repair tech. After about 3 hours, he hadn't showed up, so I called Sears again. This rep told me that our appointment had been cancelled becaused we hadn't received all of the necessary parts for the repair (two parts were on backorder and wouldn't ship for another week). No one at Sears informed me that our appointment had been cancelled, so I wasted my mother's time. We were again forced to reschedule our repair appointment - 2 more weeks to wait. Now, it appears all of the parts have shipped to our house and our appointment is tomorrow. It is now JUNE 23. I guess it remains to be seen whether the parts we received are the right one, and whether the machine will actually be fixed tomorrow, but I still have hope.

Bottom line is that our machine has been broken for longer than not. I will NEVER again purchase ANYTHING (appliance, fitness equipment or otherwise) from Sears. Buyer beware. The master protection agreement is a JOKE!

Sears holding funds

Because I maintain a household with 3 adult renters, my need for appliances becomes critical because failures affect 4 individuals at once. Getting a 3rd renter necessitated a small refrigerator purchase, then the washer went out. I attempted to buy the frigerator online from the Sears Outlet website but my order was hampered when the online purchase was canceled. After receiving no order confirmations (via email) after 10 or 15 mins, I started to panic. I checked my bank and verified a funds hold, for the purchase amount, was indeed in place. Later (while searching for a washer) I got a phone call stating my refrigerator order was cancelled because that particular item had already been sold. "They thought they had the item but didn't." Huh!?! How does Sears Outlet sell something that has already been sold!?! Aren't inventories updated at point of purchase? If not, then why not! By direct register sale or by the sales person, online - At the The Time of Purchase? aaugh . . . Anyways, because of the "canceled" status of my 1st purchase, I thought (mistakenly) my funds would be released soon and to proceed with my 2nd purchase, the washer. 1.5hrs later, with the 2nd purchase completed, I still have no release of funds from the 1st purchase). Next day, today! Funds from 1st order still being held. Order history verifies 2nd purchase has completed but now, too is cancelled. A call to cust svcs 877#, where I had to "insist" on speaking to a supervisor because the initial female rep got out of line. He advised me he could not provide a "Release of Funds" ltr to my bank to preempt the estimated 2 week hold on my funds. All of this for trying to purchase of an item "That Wasn't Even There!" Hhmmm, makes me wonder if this doesn'tborder on the fringes of some sort of crime. And to think, I used to love my purchase experiences with Sears Outlet, (of which I have made a few & recommended a few more!).
Next Step - a written letter to corp.
This experience practically guarentees that Sears Outlet will no longer be an option for this household. Nevertheless, I wanna thank Sears Outlet . . . for treating me like a valued customer. . . taking my money, giving me nothing in return, not the item I ordered, not a letter to release funds, not a refund, not even a credit towards another purchase. thank you . . .

I can't begin to say how horrible my experience with this company was...I purchased a refrigerator for $1, 065 that retails new from Amazon for $1, 400. It arrived at my house with 5 dents and tape gunk on the handles that we're not described in the listing. My tenants made the mistake of accepting it instead of turning it away, but the condition was clearly unacceptable...and on top of that, the delivery personnel was late and missed 2 appointment windows...

When I called to have the item returned, the manager Tony employee #40634 was by far the rudest customer service personnel in history. He literally threatened me by saying "Here's my employee number, go ahead and try to report me", and then hung up. I have NEVER been so appalled.

in purchasing a new oven for my home, Sears denied the acceptance of my debit card being used as a credit purchase. I then gave them my credit card and it would "not accept card type". I was forced to use my debit card as a debit purchase and use my private pin number in public which I did not feel comfortable doing.

Sears elite washer model #110.[protected]

F1 code like a lot of people. Model #110.[protected]. I just got off the phone with Sears and they said I was not included in any recall and would have to pay over $250.00 to fix this issue. Sears has a recall on this issue, but my serial number is not included. I cannot believe that my issue is any different from everyone else's. I would like to know why some get fixed and others do not, as this issue is the same across the board. By the looks of all I have read, Sears is selective about the machines the will fix and screw the rest. I do not think this issue will go away because Sears sold so many of these units. I know I paid close to $2, 000.00 for the pair and now it looks like I will have to replace them. I am just not that confident that Sears will take care of everyone with this problem. I have also read that after the control board has been replaced, the F1 error begins again after a short while. If this has happened to you, please respond. Also let me know if there is a class action suit for this. If there isn't, should we get one started?
Thanks!

Sears .com scam/fraud

Facts
1. I bought a CD player (which I tried to return as it was broken), via SEARS, with updates from SEARS in my email, and with the attached response to “Refunds” via the SEARS WEBSITE/Store.
2. My wife and 82 year old Mother In Law (I’m disabled, on SS) brought it to our local SEARS Store, Capitola, CA. who had them go back and forth between Sales, PICKUP, etc and finally said “no”, as a third party, unbeknownst to me, was involved. To me, it doesn’t matter if there is a third or fourth or fifth middleman, MY Business was with SEARS. SEARS is the one who should STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCTS sold under YOUR NAME, SEARS. I went to the SEARS website, Ordered through the SEARS website, and got a Conformation and Shipping Status email, FROM SEARS. Now you give me a cute “Refund Decline” piece of paper with a 1-800 line to call. YOUR employees, MANAGER, should be leading the way to correct your problem, and not hoping I’ll give up after dealing with electronic answering machines.
3. Period.
I want my money returned and I want SEARS to pick up this broken CD Player I had ordered from SEARS. I should NOT be asked to PAY for mailing as it was PHYSICALLY brought back into your SEARS store already.
No wonder my Country is going downhill….this is what a company, that used to be an American Icon, does to its customers these days…

Sears lack of knowledge/ flirtation

I went into the sears auto center at columbus, ms. yesterday fri. 17 th to purchase a air compresser. After asking the sales person a few questions I knew right away he had know clue about the product. I pick a compressor after some thought and went to pay. I wanted to us use my rewards points. After about 15 or more min. I was told I could not use the rewards because I didnt have a sears card. I was told I should have gotten a Card when I purchased my lawn mower some two months before. so I go back to the main store and there I was told that sears did not issue cards anymore and that I would have to get my pin # from my email. So I go home and get the pin # from my email and return to the store today the 18th. I get the compressor and take it to the check out counter and tell the assoc# 531939 that I want to use my rewards points. When he told me the price I knew he had know idea about rewards points. I had given him my pin# for my rewards when I told him I wanted to use my points. After 20 min with the help of another assoc. I finally got the compressor. The other assoc. whos # I did not get was flirting and making remarks to my lady friend . She did not appreciate what he said nor did I. He said I bet u get spoiled on ur birthday. He also said to her as we were leaving for her not to spoil me to much which is none of his business. He came to the counter as we were checking out and talked to her most of the time as I making the purchase. She was standing right beside me so I had no problem hearing the conversation. The assoc. that was doing the flirting was working fri. but I did not get his assoc no. as I said. I dont think u will have any trouble finding out who he was as there was only two of them working. Im sure there story will be different. Yes u may call me if u would like or email me.

Sears wants ssn & dob on a.com

Recieved a new CC that is through CitiBank.
Registered via phone. Then wen on-line to update stuff, and it wants my SSN & DOB on a .com site.
No way will I do that, and they have no way to complain to them unless I do register (meaning giving them this info).
Bah Humbug.
Called the number on the CC and got "...that is the procedure..."

Sears had lost me as a customer and cc holder.

Sears Unrealiable

Bought this washer and drier set in 2008. Worked well until about 6 monthds ago and began getting the F1 message intermittantly. Called Sears and they said it would be a charge for the controller board and the service. Checked on-line and found it was a common problem and began discussions with sears until they finally released the recall information.
Then the Spin cycle started sounding as though the Washing Machine was going to take off into ordbit. Whem the repair tech arrived and took ten minutes to install the controller board, he admitted the sound is the bearings in the tub are going out and need to be replaced. Three years (possibly 4) old and the bearings are now going? We scheduled an appointment (he carried no parts because they are contract repair to sears. The tub has a 10 year warrantee but the service is 137.00 labor. I called sears to inquire about letting go of the service fees since it appears it is a manufacture problem and the person (Casey) I spoke with acted like I was speaking a foriegn language and did not understand what I was asking and tranfsferred me to the thrid party service group who finally understood and told me I had to call sears to get the charges dismissed. Start of the run around tactic.
Seems Sears has lost the customer satisfaction direction and do not want return business or favorable recommendations. After I get this fixed, if anything else goes, it will be time to look into some of the class action suits against them, and pledge to get rid of this trach and never buy from them again. They support nothing, especially their customers.

Sears furniture

I hope the following can help prevent at least one person from ever purchasing anything, especially furniture from Sears Canada.

We purchased a number of Natuzzi leather furniture items to furnish our basement. The problems started with delivery - almost a week late. Beyond that, the delivery people would not move the furniture into my basement even though we paid for delivery so I had to enlist my own help to get the furniture out of the hallway of the main floor and into the basement.

It wasn't too long before the leather started to separate from the foot-rest when the recliner was extended on 2/3 chairs and the sofa. I took it upon myself to just fix it... pulled out my staple gun and problem solved. The real problem started a month or so ago and the hardware for the recliner in the sofa is broken leaving the sofa back always in a reclined position. This furniture gets used only every couple weeks or so whenever we watch movies and I would think that a sofa that is only two years old with minimal use would last longer... especially given the cost.

I submitted a request to Sears online to have someone come out and look at the problem and fix it. I was told there is nothing Sears can do because it was no longer under warranty. Well guess how long the warranty was expired before I reported the problem... yep... 1 WEEK!

Again, I complained about how ridiculous it was that they would not stand behind a very expensive product that was only a week beyond warranty. I am told there is nothing they can do and that they have to follow their procedures and policies.

If a company is not willing to look at least a little outside the box and stand behind the product they sell then they should not be in business. The service has been pathetic and rude and this is a huge slap in the face considering the dollars that were spent there only a couple years ago. I will never purchase a single item from Sears and I will do my best to let everyone I can, know that Sears will take every opportunity they can to back out of doing the right thing no matter how much or little you spend.

Sears Ruined Clothing

We purchased our Kenmore Front Load Washer and Dryer less than a year ago. For the last several months our clothing have had black streaks/marks showing up that will not come out. We have lost in excess of $500 CAD of clothing at this point. Sears has sent their contraced service company out twice to fix it. They have replaced the washer bearing and drum as well as the felt/liner in the dryer. While the contractor has been out twice to fix it I have stayed home 3 days from work because for one of the appointments they made, and that they called to confirm the day prior, they didn't show up for. They called the day of the appt at 2 p.m. in the afternoon to inform me they weren't coming after all as they were going to order parts. When I expressed my disastisfaction with the company the woman on the phone responds by saying "We're bad aren't we"? If I could have reached through the phone at that moment... ! Unbelivable. Unfortunately they have the contract for Sears and if I want my appliances fixed I have no choice. Well.. Sears -- here's my choice. My choice is to use every public forum and social media tool there is to let everyone else NOT TO BUY FROM SEARS!

When I called Sears to complain that my washer/dryer are still not fixed and in fact a new problem has shown up whereby it is not spinning or rinsing clothes. The customer service agent said the only thing they can do is to have the service company come out again. That will make 4 days I have stayed home from work. At this point SEARS owes me as the cost of me staying home is more than the appliances are worth and especially when you add in the cost of the clothing to replace it. The rep. also said they won't discuss compensation for my clothing until the problem is fixed. Yes you heard it correctly - keep ruining clothing until they figure out what is wrong. So the bill could be $750 or $1000 or higher in clothes alone by the time they figure out what is wrong.

So, continue to frustrate the customer, inconvenience them rather than just replacing the obvious lemons they sold me. Nice. I have been a Sears customer for the past 30 years. But I GUARANTEE these were the last SEARS appliances I will ever buy unless they resolve this situation by replacing the appliances and personal apology from the president of the companyw ith a promise to address the obvious customer service issues they have. And since I know that will happen when HE** freezes over... I guess they lost a customer.

Sears eye glasses

I needed a new pair of bifocals, since my other pair had broken. I knew they were expensive. My vision plan is only available at some stores and Sears happened to be one of them. I had my eye exam and then checked out the glasses. I had reservations after I had visited with the salesperson. She seemed rather lazy, but I blew it off. After I ordered my glasses I waited about a week and they finally came in. I was excited until I put them on when I got home. They seemed to not sit correctly on my nose and it was difficult to see out of them. When my husband inspected them, he noticed the bifocals were way off. I took them back the next day and waited a week. I picked them up and they alright, so I took them home. They just weren't right. When I had my other pair, I could see out them perfectly. With these new glasses, it was difficult to see out of them. My husband noticed they sat crooked on my face. I had to drive the 15 miles again to the store. The other salesperson there was lazier than the first. She rolled her eyes when I told her the glasses were crooked and the nose piece was crooked. She adjusted them, but actually made them worse. My husband took a look at them and noticed that the bifocals were still crooked! I couldn't afford to keep driving back and forth. I need my glasses to read and for my job, yet I wasn't able to use them for two months. I looked on the back of the receipt and it states the Sears "satisfaction guaranteed" --90 days with receipt and I also checked out the Sears optical website and they also state satisfaction guaranteed. I went to the store, again, and told her the problem, told her my glasses were useless, that it would work better for me to get a refund and go elsewhere for a pair of glasses that would be useful for me. I told her that it was disappointing to spend 250.00 on a pair of glasses that I can't use and that I had to resort to my dollar store readers for the past two months. I told her that I had taken my glasses to two other optical shops and they said the frames were crooked and the bifocals were so crooked they would have to be sent in and have a new bifocal put in. She rolled her eyes and was argumentative with me. That was disappointing because that's not a way to deal with customers. She said they can't just give a refund. They have to try to correct the problem. I told her that it 's not acceptable for the glasses to come back the first time with crooked bifocals ( I have never, ever had that problem at any other optical shop) and worse yet, to have them come back "fixed", but still crooked? I just told her Sears already tried to correct the problem once, and I'd prefer my refund. She said "well, I have to take 25% off for a restocking fee IF the district manager approves a refund because the lenses are no good to anyone else." Hmmm.. I told her that the lenses are no good to me, let alone anyone else and the glasses were useless. I also mentioned that I'm not paying 25% restocking fee when I have to return a product that is defective! It's not like I was returning it because I didn't like the color. She was very rude. Finally, she called me back several hours later and said she could give me a refund. Yes, another trip the store, but worth it for my refund. Now I have to hope she was capable of crediting my card. I should also mention that the receipt Sears optical uses is the same receipt the rest of the store uses. According to the back of the receipt "satisfaction guaranteed or a refund or exchange." She said they have a different policy. I told her that they should then either use a different receipt and post THEIR policy up. I also had talked with the Sears manager and she said the same thing, that the optical shop just leases from them and that they have their own policy, but the guarantee is "sort of " good, but that it means that they have to work with you on fixing the glasses. I told her that I didn't see that printed on the receipt.
In summary, if you used a credit card to purchase eye glasses and Sears isn't working with you, try the dispute resolution. Don't wait too long because there is a time limit. Contact the Better Business Bureau and let them know, too. I will never purchase eye glasses from Sears again. What a hassle!

I just came back from Sears Optical in Plano, Texas. 30 miles from my home but still the closest one to me. I was there because of the t.v. ad promoting 2 pairs of glasses for $99.00 (including bifocals). As my wife and I walked into the store, we heard some very unhappy noises from a customer who was still making complaints in a loud voice as he left. I jokingly said, "I hope our visit goes better than that." Well, it did not. Without recreating the entire dialog I will say, "BAIT & SWITCH". Not because I did not get what I wanted for the price I wanted. But because after I was through talking with the manager, I could tell that they knew before I got there, they were not going to sell me a single pair of glasses for anywhere near $99. All of her comments were laced with excuses. As someone who has been trained in sales and negotiation, I could see what was going on. I felt set up by the Sears t.v. ad. And I could tell that the store manager knew what the game was. After my visit to Sears Optical I came home frustrated over the waste of gas and time, I went on line to research the company and realized that I was not alone. I am now grateful that the manager was not "slicker" and I did not get drawn into a relationship that may have proved even more frustrating and costly. I guess Sears isn't even trying to pretend that they deserve the reputation they once held with their customers. As for me...Sears is a dirty word...Not Goin' Back!

Sears optical is a part of the Lenscrafters group, parent company Luxotica. I suggest to anyone needing glasses to purchase them from their eye doctor. His professional license is on the line when he allows improperly made glasses to leave his office. There is a reason many states REQUIRE ABO certification for anyone to work in the optic field. It sounds to me that you are having adjustment issues with the prescription written. Many people do not get their eyes checked regularly- once a year is the recommendation. Bifocals are only effective to a distance of 10-15 inches away from your face. If your Rx changed and you use them at the computer that could be part of the problem. Your bifocal strength is too strong for computer usage. You must tell your examiner this information before they write the RX. Bifocals also do not sit in the middle of the glasses they are slightly closer to the nose area as the eyes travel inward to read. Anytime the Rx changes, top or bottom a person will see the line or the side distortions, if they wear progressive lens, show back up. I suggest to anyone wearing glasses to have them adjusted for a comfortable fit before they leave the store. If making a new purchase and you are a bifocal wearer have them adjusted BEFORE the lens is made as raising or lowering the adjustment changes the position of the bifocals making them higher or lower depending on the height of the nasal adjustment. Take the glasses made back to your DR. and make sure the Rx is filled correctly anytime you have glasses made. Most Dr.'s do not charge for this service.

Sears balance payoff

I activated my Sears Accountcare benefits for unemployment. I called today to ask why my account balance hadn't been canceled after 6 months of unemployment per the policy benefits and I was told I had the 12 month instead of the 6 month balance payoff policy. I said when I signed up there was no 6 month or 12 month option, it was only 6 months; also, the website only mentions the 6 month balance payoff. I was told, too bad, I had the 12 month policy. I have never heard of the 12 month balance payoff option until I called today. It seems I must have signed up for a "secret" policy that was not clearly explained or I was changed to a 12 month policy after I signed up for the program.

Sears Credit Card Account was closed with balance owed. Although I continue to make payments every month ...Citicard continue to allow Sears AccountCare to bill every month against a closed account, thus causing me to go over the limit. Account Care knows that this is a closed account and still continue to bill to account and it being accepted by Citicard.

Sears rescheduled appointment

I had an appointment for a washing machine repair scheduled for 6/13/2011 between 1 and 5 PM. At 3 PM Sears called to say that they were overbooked and would not be able to fix the machine until Thursday 6/16/2011. I spoke to customer service. I was read a prepared script and told that they could not offer me an earlier appointment. I took a day off from work for nothing. SEARS SERVICE is the WORST! Shop somewhere else if you expect appointments to be kept.

My name is Philip Gitterman. I have 11 warranty contract with Sears. I have been having problems since July 27, 2017 up to today. I have called and called Sears for my Central Air conditioner that I have a warranty on. Sears has cancelled four appointments on me including Oct. 13, 2017. I get transferred to warranty, HVAC, Customer Services and all I get is the run around. Three Sears Service technicians can out on appointments and stated that they could not repair this system. The warranty department gave me authorization to hire contractors and they also stated that this system cannot be repaired. The last technician from Sears stated the system cannot be repaired. He called the stack unit afterword and advised them of this, that they told him to get a condenser which he called around and did not have it. Oct. 2, 2017 he came out and again they changed my appointment. I right now have been contacted the local TV station on this problem. Sears is cancelling my appointments left and right. I have been dealing with Sears for over 50 years, 28 of them with warranty contracts. I just recently extended my contracts in August for three more
years with a cost of $3, 900. This is the worst I have with sears services on my Central Air conditioner. Like I said they cancel my appointment left & right. The contractors that I was authorize to hire both stated the system cannot be repaired and the three Sears technicians also stated that. I have an e-mail from Sears stating I requested this system be replaced over two months ago with no response. The Stack department is playing games with me on this. I have made over a hundred calls since this started back in July, 2017.

My name is Philip Gitterman, 725 Arlington Road, Narberth, PA. 19072, [protected]. I only ask for them to send someone out to verify the three technicians from Sears that have been here in August thru Oct. 2, 1997 and the two pre-authorized contractors that were authorized through the warranty department stating that the unit was nor repairable. Please call me on this or e-mail me this. They have set up another appointment on Oct. 23, 2017. I hope they send out a technician on Oct. 13, 2017 and do not cancel again. Under my warranty contract this unit is warranted to be repaired or replaced if they cannot fix it.
Thanking You

Sears inappropriate hiring practices

This is the letter I wrote to HR Director. I doubt they will ever answer, or do anything about it.
Sears Holdings Corporation
3333 Beverly Road
Hoffman Estates, IL 60179
[protected]
Dear Human Resources Director,
I wish to make you aware of a situation that took place over the past week, when my son interviewed at the Sears Store in Vineland, NJ.
My 20-year-old son is two credits away from his BA in Criminal Justice/Forensic Science. He was awarded an internship to spend a few months this Fall in Washington, DC. This would not only give him ten more credits more than he would need to graduate, but it would give him valuable life and career experience. He has a 3.6 GPA, and likely would be better suited to be the interviewer than the interviewee.
Jonathan, my son, went in for a first interview for a cashier’s job, part time, last Tuesday. The “manager” interviewing him was unable to read the questions from the survey, and unable to write the answers to his questions. Jon came home and commented to me, “this is the first time I ever saw an illiterate supervisor.” My son was so embarrassed for this “manager” that he almost offered to take the pen and write the answers down for him.
The “manager” failed to mention the internship in the written survey, and my son was called in for a second interview today, June 7, 2011. Another Manager, named Scott, appearing more literate and professional, interviewed him this time. When Jon mentioned the internship, the Manager said it was not mentioned on the report, and because of it he would not consider Jon for the job. At that point, my son enlightened this Manager of the details surrounding his first interview, including the other “manager” being unable to read and write. The interviewing Manager appeared very surprised, but I don’t know why he should have been given the elaborate application/interview/screening process your company has on its website!
I am concerned by this because I have retired (due to a disability) from teaching after 26 years as a Chemistry teacher. I have taught honors middle school, high school, and served as a college adjunct. I taught 19 years of my career here in Vineland, and I am deeply embarrassed by the likelihood that your disgraceful “manager” was a product of our local public schools.
I have trained both of my sons in how to present themselves in an interview, how to write a resume, how to apply for employment. It is usually the complaint of employers that graduates of high school/college are not equipped with the skills to obtain employment. This is the FIRST TIME I have ever heard of a “manager” poorly educated for the task of hiring employees, and for the demands of his job, which should include reading and writing. HOW did this person get his job? WHY is this person still in his job?
If my son would have to work for an uneducated “manager” such as this one, and spend his entire working day cleaning up the messes this illiterate left behind, it is a good thing he did not get the job. Had your management people had any foresight, they would have looked at my son as a potential Loss Prevention specialist, or a supervisor, and hired him on to train him in the summer, to return to the job when his internship ended. Jon has already had two interviews with companies interested in placing him in Loss Prevention when he has his degree in hand (December 2011). Perhaps jealousy or intimidation kept them from taking a chance on a very intelligent, polite, hard-working young man, who would be a trustworthy, valuable asset to your company.
Sears used to take chances on college students, giving them an opportunity to work while they were in school, then hiring them into higher level positions when their education was completed, making them career employees. Now it seems that the opportunities go to those who are without skills, without an education, and who do not check the “white” box in your survey. With employees and “managers” like the one interviewing my son, it is no wonder that Sears is losing retail market share. I can tell you as a certainty I will never shop in the Vineland store ever again, knowing that it is run by management that would lose if they participated on the show “Are you Smarter than a Fifth-Grader?”
Hopefully you will get with the program, and give your “managers” literacy tests before you turn them loose on the public.
Thank you.

As to reference to the stupidity of the Sears Holdings Corporation and how they think, Icompletely understand the frustration of Vineland, NJ.

My wife was a "Registered Pharmacy Technician" at a local Florida KMART (which is part of the Sears Holdings Corporation) for over 4.5 years; until they figured out a way to fire her w/o having to give her all the Sears Benefits she was rightfully entitled to receive as a F'/T Hourly Associate.

Prior to all this, we tried to get the Store Management, the pharmacy manager, the pharmacy division manager etc., to notify Sears Holdings Corporation/HR Department to change my wife's "Work Status, from a P/T Hourly Associate, to a F/T Hourly Associate", but to no avail...they won...

Sears Oven will not heat up and element Light will not shut off

I purchased a Kenmore ceramic stove in 2007 recently I have noticed that the element light will not shut off and my oven is not heating up like it should. I purchased from Sears because they were so highly rated with Consumer reports. My stove is only 5 years old and I am so disappointed that this has happened we are going to have to pay $129.00 for a service call that does not include any parts that we need. I feel that a stove only 5 years old should not be doing this, my old stove which was not Kenmore lasted over 15 years without any problems. I will not be purchasing anymore appliances from Sears unless you correct this! Thankyou

Hi. My name is Judylynn S. I have owned my Kenmore, model97C6332 for 2 yes, 2 months. This past month or so I have noticed that it doesn't come up to the temp I have set. I know this because I bought an external gizmo and placed it in the oven to check. Pretty upsetting after owning for such a short time!
Now I'll have to have a service call and pay up.

I'll get a service warranty next time, and not buy a Kenmore.

I have a Kenmore glass top stove that I bought at Sears because they are supposed to have good appliances. However, the oven takes 17 minutes to get to 350 degrees. Why is that? Is that the way it's suppose to work?

Any help will be appreciated

i also purchased a kenmore gas stove in 2007 and i am having the same problem as the people above .the heating element does not work, it takes a very long time to heat up, if it does at all, and when it does it will stay on for a very long time and you get a strong gas smell which is not safe for anybody in the house, it can became so strong last night we had to leave the house. i purchased from sears because my parents and grandparents always did . all my appliances are from sears and i tell my children to buy from sears as well but i have had several problems with the refrigerator bought the same time and now this, i also will not be buying from sears as well as not sending my children there anymore if this issue can not be solved by sears. sears was built on generation of families buying from you but if products are bought and do not last or have continual problems then you can bet no parent or family will suggest to another to buy from you. if you can help with this issue please email me at tam8365@ymail.com.

Sears plumber that sears contracts out

I am an employee of the "Nevada state Contractors Board" in Henderson, NV. I purchased a soft water conditioner for a rental home that I own. When the Plumber arrived, I was not there, my tenant was home. My tenant informed me that the plumber (Union Plumbing) said immediately that he could not install the water softener because the plastic tubing was 3/8" and it has to be 1/2". My tenant asked him how much it would cost to change out this tubing. The Plumber's response was $500.00. He then told my tenant that unless he had this $500.00 of tubing replaced, that "Sears" would not honor the warranty on the unit. My tenant called me immediately and I told him to tell the Plumber to take the water softener and leave, which he did. I then looked up Union Plumbing on our investigation system and he has numerous complaints against him. I went back to Sears and told the salesperson to send another plumber and informed her of all the complaints. They did send another plumber a few days later (Active Plumbing) . Active Plumbing was in and out of the house within 30 minutes, did great work and never mentioned anything about tubing. My tenant said the water softener is working great. When I came into my office this morning, I informed one of my investigators of the situation and told him that I was also going to send this e-mail to your company. I work in the Investigations Department and deal with contractors overcharging and doing unnessary work and ripping off homeowners every day. I thought Sears should be informed of this. You are welcome to call me at my office if you choose to, my info is as follows:
Janet Brinkley, Nevada State Contractors Board, direct work number [protected] Thank you.

Sears nothing in stock

I went to Sears to put a Garden Oasis Lighted Gazebo ($699.00) on layaway, and when the gentleman who assisted me went in to the computer to put my information in, it showed that the gazebo was not in stock. I then chose a different gazebo, and the same thing, that one wasn't available either. The gentleman proceeded to tell me that out of all the gazebos Sears has for sale, there are only 2 of one model in stock at this time..only 2 gazebos in stock! He said that they haven't sold many because the manufacturer hasn't sent them. He went on to say that he had three customers last week wanting to buy gazebos, but couldn't because there weren't any in stock! Before I left the store, I bought a garden item, and the cashier asked me if I had any luck with the gazebos because I had originally asked him for assistance, and he called someone to assist in the Garden Center, and he said that he knew of two people a few weeks ago who left disappointed as well, for the same reason! this is absolutely unacceptable! Sears is advertising a product in their weekly ad, week after week, offering layaway, and they don't even have the product! I will go somewhere else!

It's because the manufacturer hasn't sent them.

Sears puts in ad's based on what stock they are supposed to have on hand.

Call the manufacturer and tell them your dissapointment.

They might be able to help you.

Sears cancellation process

To whom it may concern,

I cannot begin to explain how disappointed I am with your parts department cancellation process. I initially placed an order by calling and requesting a part for my Kenmore refrigerator (water filter #9002) the agent placed the order and at no time gave me cancellation requirements. I was e-mailed the order information, which did not explain your cancellation process.

About 20-25 minutes later I called back in to cancel the order. I was told to hold and was transferred. After waiting on hold again I was transferred again, only to be told abruptly that there was no way the order could be cancelled. I would have to wait for the part to be shipped and then call back in and request a return authorization, then once the part was back they would credit me back. I tried to reason with the agent but they would not budge and wasn’t accommodating. I disconnected the call and went to the Internet in search of a complaint line for sears…only to find many of them. I called [protected] and chatted briefly with an agent only to be transferred again. I finally got to Nikia (#200246) she explained to me once they press the button it goes to the manufacture and there was absolutely no cancellation available.

So here is my complaint…your company is large and well known. To explain to a customer that has been loyal to sears that there is nothing they can do is unacceptable. I work for a large telecommunication company and deal with parts orders for customers. I would have bent over backwards to assist a customer that no longer requested an order. There is always a way to cancel it, even if it is time consuming.

So I asked for a way to voice my complaint and was given an address. I will post this online for others to read in hope that others will find out how difficult it is to cancel with your parts department. I guess in all honesty I will not even get a response from you so I will make sure I stop shopping with sears in general.

A once loyal customer

I am very disappointed with Sears/Parts Dept. I order a part for my washer on March 14, 2010 and it arrived to me 2 weeks later as an Oven Switch. What ? Why was an oven switch sent to me instead of a washer valve? Good question! I called Sears and spoke with a Customer Service Representative and explained to her that the wrong part was shipped to me. Well, she replied with "we apologize for the inconvience that this may have cause but we can send out another part to you and charge your card again, then once we receive the oven switch then we will credit your account." What?...are you serious! Then she started apologizing again for the mistake and telling me that they could rest out the part too me. I told her that I want them to send me the corret part once they receive the wrong part back. I had been out of a washer for 3 weeks at that time. Now, you will think because of their mistake that they would rush me back out the part quickly! Not, I have been waiting for over 5 weeks now for a simiple washer valve for my washer. I found out tody 4/9/2010 that my account was credited for the amount of the washer part on 4/7/2010 with no indiction from Sears. I received NO phone call or email from Sears stating that they receive the Oven Switch and that they were not sending me back the correct part! I am very "pissed off" that they are very unprofessional about doing business with their customers. I spoke with a "so called" Supervisor today in Arizona that told me that they will not ship out my part because they credited my account and there was nothing they are I could do about but to re-order the part. What? Does any body care about my family and I have been without a washer for 1 month and we waited on Sears to deliver a part (that simple) to my house so we could have a happy home again:( I want everyone to know that SEARS is not the reliable company we once knew years ago as kids. Do not shop at SEARS for anything... especially for parts! They SUCK! Oh, the guy told me to write to the corporate office about my complaint. Of course, I will do that as well, but I'm glad I found this site.

OK here is the answer to Sears Parts - TopApplianceParts.com remember that website - and here is what you will get:

Sears Parts: $79.00 TopApplianceParts ; $ 22

see the pattern - same item - big difference in price. TPA = great customer service- ships quickly- No BS!

Sears Parts = Horrible prices- expensive shipping - too much BS !
