Had some quick questions and most likely should probably just ask one of my store managers whenever I can pin them down. But was wondering, if any one knew when it comes down to getting full-time, I know folks with more seniority get it first, right. But, how is seniority defined per se. I know that those that have been at the store before me obviously have it.
But what if someone transfers into my dept. from another store, where they likely had some level of their own seniority, there. Do they bring that with them at the new store? And thereby, be considered above me as well now in my dept.? Or would they have to re-earn NEW seniority at the new store and I would have some seniority over them?
If they're coming from the same division, their seniority sticks. No matter what department.
When a full time position becomes open in your department, any part timer in any store or department can put in for it, but it is only given to the one with the most seniority. They'd have to apply for it first, of course.
If they are coming to your store from the same district/division as you, then seniority will go by hire date. Say if they are part time like you, but say were hired in 2014, then they will jump ahead of anyone hired after then in the list of part timers on your schedule.
