FROM STAFF REPORTS

JCPenney stores are getting ready to welcome back-to-school crowds by hiring as many as 345 seasonal associates throughout South Carolina for a variety of positions.

Available customer service and support positions include cashiers, replenishment specialists, SEPHORA inside JCPenney beauty consultants and more. The store, which is located inside the Sumter Mall, offers seasonal associates a full associate discount up to 25% and flexible holiday scheduling.

JCPenney is also seeking experienced stylists to be part of the company's salon program. A commission plan enables stylists with robust client books to set their own hours and pricing. Highly experienced stylists can also take advantage of flexible scheduling with no booth rental fees. Salon stylists enjoy perks such as paid artistic training, health benefits for full-time stylists, paid time off and 401K eligibility.

Interested locals at all skill levels are encouraged to apply in-store using the JCPenney Applicant Kiosk or online at https://jobs.jcp.com and searching "seasonal" jobs in their market. Those candidates hired as seasonal associates have the opportunity to be hired as permanent associates as needed on a store-by-store basis.
