Sears Hiring Once More

Hoffman Estates, Ill., Four months after firing 850 workers, Sears Holding Corp. has posted nearly 100 help-wanted notices on Monster.com. The corporate headquarters jobs range from women’s apparel buyer to VP of financial services.

Some Sears workers who lost their jobs in April are speculating that the new jobs will be on a different pay structure than prior jobs—lowering base salaries to bring costs down.
