Kohl's’ Post

Juneteenth is a significant holiday in American history. In June of 1865, the last remaining slaves were freed in Galveston, Texas, commemorating the end of slavery and the resiliency of Black people. Kohl's customer service coordinator, Richard Harris, was born and raised in Galveston where his ancestors were once enslaved. While Richard shared that his family celebrates the day with barbecues and bonfires, he also honors the day by educating others about the holiday’s significance. “By examining the moments of our past, we gain insights into our collective journey and empower ourselves to continue striving for a better future. It's through this reflection that we can evolve and address the ongoing challenges we face as a society,” said Richard. “As I celebrate today, I am grateful for the opportunities and freedoms that my family and I enjoy. Juneteenth is more than just a historical event; it is a testament to the endurance of the human spirit and a celebration of our shared journey toward freedom and equality.” This Juneteenth, I encourage you all to come together, reflect, and work toward a brighter, more inclusive future. Happy Freedom Day! #Juneteenth #Kohls #LifeatKohls

The title of ‘dad’ is one many of our Kohl's associates own. What makes Kohl’s truly unique is that our associates care about one another and can learn from each other -- both professionally and personally. When starting at Kohl’s almost a decade ago, Logan N. Gill, manager of marketing project coordination and father of two, never anticipated his colleagues would be such a sense of support and inspiration as his family grew. “Kohl’s has introduced me to incredible mentorship relationships - both formal and informal. More importantly, I've learned from other working parents, which has helped me become a better parent and man,” Logan recently shared. “It’s about advocating for myself, learning from other more experienced parents, listening to my wife and relentlessly pursuing this ideal of being present in the moment. It's also about navigating how that looks different in different seasons of life.” As we enter the weekend, I wish all dads, father figures, and those pursuing fatherhood a Happy Father’s Day! #Kohls #LifeatKohls #Parenting #FathersDay

I loved seeing so many new faces around campus last week as we welcomed our new class of Kohl's summer interns.  We have nearly 600 interns representing 46 states and more than 250 universities nationwide across our corporate headquarters, stores, and e-fulfillment and distribution centers. Over the summer, these students will get unique business exposure as they participate in development sessions, think tanks, volunteer projects, and hear from c-suite executives. In some departments, interns are rotated throughout their summer to expose them to several unique job duties and roles, and in the last few weeks of their internship, interns showcase what they’ve learned by leading store walks, presenting final projects, or providing oversight to a department within a distribution or e-fulfillment center. I’ve had the chance to meet a number of our interns already – addressing the group and meeting several individually, and I am looking forward to connecting with more across the company throughout the summer. Thank you to our entire early talent and HR team for onboarding this 2024 intern class. Now let’s make this the #BestSummerEver! https://lnkd.in/gkDHV-7N

This week we kicked off our 2024 summer internship! We are so thrilled to welcome almost 600 interns to #lifeatkohls throughout our Stores, DC/EFC, Corporate, Remote (Tech-only), NYDO, and San Ramon locations. We’ve already had the opportunity to meet so many interns who are ambitious, creative, determined, and most importantly, our future leaders. We are beyond excited for the next 8 to 10 weeks and are so proud to be the employer you’ve chosen to spend your summer with. Thank you to all of our partners who helped bring together this program. And to our interns, here’s to the BEST SUMMER EVER! #kohlsinterns
