Does Kohl’s have a hiring bonus?

Answered by Phillip Nicastro

I worked at Kohl’s for several years and I can share my personal experience regarding sign-on bonuses. When it comes to hiring bonuses at Kohl’s, it is not a common practice. In fact, based on the feedback from 22 employees, 73% of them said that they did not receive a signing bonus when they joined the company.

However, this does not mean that Kohl’s never offers sign-on bonuses. It could just be that they are not a standard part of their hiring process. In the cases where employees did receive a sign-on bonus, the most common range reported was between $1,000 and $5,000. It is important to note that these figures are based on the feedback I received from a limited number of employees and may not represent the entire company.

It is also worth mentioning that sign-on bonuses can vary depending on various factors such as the position being hired for, the location of the store, and the current job market conditions. Additionally, sign-on bonuses may be more common for higher-level positions or in specific departments where it may be more difficult to attract qualified candidates.

While it is not a guarantee, there is a possibility of receiving a sign-on bonus when joining Kohl’s. However, it is not a widespread practice, and the actual amount of the bonus can vary. I would recommend discussing this with the hiring manager during the interview process to get a better understanding of what to expect.
