Sunshine asked:
I’ve worked in the restaurant business for 8 years and I thought about applying at sears for part time, how much do they pay? Will they consider my experience with costumer service and cashier to pay me a bit more then they would start? Should I go full time ? They say they pay about 7.25? plus comission?

It really depends on what type of job you are applying for at Sears. It sounds like you are applying for a commissioned sales job? The payscale is different between electronics, brand central (appliances), and home improvement. Most Sears stores will start their commissioned salespeople out at a base salary of $6.50 plus commission. Of course, it is the discretion of the store manager on what he/she thinks you should be paid. There is an “official” payscale on how much they can offer you, and how little they can offer you. Now, on to commission. In electronics, you will not be making very much commission. It depends on what brand you are selling. Some of the “cheaper” models will be about 1% commission, then Samsung and Sony’s will be about 3-4% commission. Then, you can make good if you sell PA’s, or “purchase agreements.” It is true that you will get a chunk of that. So, it is not unreasonable to think that you may make up to $300 off selling a $2,000 TV. If you want to work in Brand Central (appliances), this is where the real money is to be made. However, there is a catch. You will typically make 7-10% commission on EVERYTHING you sell in appliances, but you do not get paid a base hourly wage. If you had a bad two weeks, Sears will pay you $6.50 an hour for the time you worked if you made NO sales, but the first couple of sales you make, they will take the base salary they paid you out of your next paycheck. So, it is a slippery slope. Home Improvement is set up the same way electronics is, but both equally have their fast times. Home improvement is hot this time of the year because of lawn tractors. Christmas is a hot time for electronics. If you are looking for steady income, head for electronics or home improvement. If you are an avid salesman and ready to make some money, they hit appliances. Otherwise, come to work for me and have the best job at Sears!
