Wanted: product testers for Sears
Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores is looking to hire EPA-certified appliance technicians and product testers in Reno, Nevada.
The reason: The company opened its newest Sears Outlet Repair and Distribution Center in Reno, Nevada. Sears ORDCs receive used and damaged (“lightly damaged,” the company says) major home appliances, lawn & garden products and fitness products to be tested, repaired, refurbished and “deluxed.” The products are sold at discounted prices, while still being covered by a limited warranty.
The Reno Sears ORDC initially supports eight stores located in California, Idaho and Nevada.
“Reno was an ideal, centrally located market for us to open a new Sears Outlet Repair and Distribution Center,” said Michael Lesso, Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc.’s director of distribution. “These centers are key to the success of our Sears Outlet Stores. Customers purchasing a Certified Appliance or other item from a Sears Outlet Store receive a fully functional and operational unit, as well as the assurance that the unit still meets Sears’ quality standards as the nation's leading retailer of appliances and appliance-related products. Our new center in Reno will be key in delivering on this promise.”
Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. and its dealers and franchisees operate 1,123 stores.
