Mom, here is exactly what to do in Florida so the transfer works.

1. Go to the Walmart where you want to work

Pick the Ocala store you like best and go in person. Go to Customer Service and say:
“Hi, I am a current Walmart associate from Pittsfield, Massachusetts.
I need to log into the employee system to update my store preference to this store and apply for jobs here.”

Ask to use a computer that has OneWalmart.

2. Log in as a current employee

On the Walmart computer:

Go to the OneWalmart site that is already on the screen

Log in with your regular Walmart associate login

Use your phone if it asks for a code

3. Change your store preference to the Ocala store

Inside OneWalmart:

Go to the careers or job preferences section

Change your preferred store to this Ocala store

Save your changes

If you get stuck, say:

“Can someone from HR help me update my store preference to this store? JoJo and Pam at my old store told me I need to do this so I can transfer here.”

4. Apply to jobs in that store

Once your preference is set:

Still in the careers area, look for open jobs at that Ocala store

Apply to any positions you can do

After you apply, ask:

“Can you please confirm that my application shows under this store now, since I am an active associate transferring from Pittsfield?”

You can also remind them:

“This move to Florida was not casual. It is for important family and financial reasons, so I really appreciate any help you can give to speed up the transfer.”
