Dick,



Again, thank you for all of your help.  We are greatly excited to get these
opportunities out to more people.



As I had mentioned to you, Tangram Business Resourcing has partnered with
Sears to initiate a disability inclusion program that includes hiring
people with disabilities. Sears offers an open company culture that is led
by strong management that embraces disability inclusion. We have spent the
last year helping Sears develop partnerships in the communities that can
help them find qualified candidates and also provide any assistive
technology employees might need.



Jobs are available across the country, however, the main focus of our
partnership is in Texas, California, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, and North
Carolina.  We strongly encourage members in these areas to apply.  In
addition to openings at the retail locations, there are positions at
distribution centers, call centers, and at the Sears Corporate Offices in
Hoffman Estates, IL.



Attached are information sheets on applying for the jobs at Sears. It is
very important that these are reviewed before applying. If an applicant
needs any accommodation during the application process, Sears does provide
this with instruction on the attached. Also, all applicants we referred are
asked to select Tangram as their referral source.  This is important so we
can track the success of this program.



Anyone with questions can contact myself or Sydney White at
swhite at thetangramway.org.



Thank you for sending this out to your list-serve.  If possible, please CC
me on the message sent so we can keep track of when it went out and
applications afterwards.



Sincerely,

Angie
