If I'm transferring to a different department is there anything I need to fill out on the website? I talked to my HR but she said that I just had to give my two week notice. The guy that interviewdd me told me that I had to fill something out online but I can't recall what it was. Does anyone know ?
When I transferred, all I did was fill out an In-Store Transfer Request form and turned it into management. There was no giving two weeks notice or filling anything out online. One day I was in one department. The next day I was in a different department.
I was told I would have to give my two weeks notice in order to be hired at another Kroger. If I just quit no Kroger in that district/city would rehire me right away. The only other way for a transfer is for both stores to come to an agreement for you to transfer or ask to fill out a request to transfer form (if you've worked there for a year or more). As for the online form, I know nothing about that.

It sounds like they are trying to trick you into voluntarily quitting because what you've been told makes no sense. A two week notice pertains to ending your employment with Kroger. In my division, if an employee wants to move from one department to another (within the same store) he/she talks with the co-manager responsible for HR matters and the department head of the department that he/she wants to go to. As long as the co-manager and department head agree on the department transfer, the employee simply is put on that department's schedule the following week while the HR co-manager/store ASP changes the employee's department/job title/etc... in the system.
Even when transferring from one store to another, there is no two week notice involved. The employee just has to get the okay from his/her current store manager and the store manager at the store he/she wants to transfer to, and the HR co-managers at both stores coordinate the transfer once the okay is given. It's possible things are done differently in your division, but... it sure as heck doesn't make sense to me what you were told.

My understanding is the same except for transferring from one store to another. Full timers can transfer if the store managers allow it. I was told part timers have to quit and be rehired by other store. Lose seniority and vacation. There are special circumstances that they allow part timers to transfer to another store without quitting. One was arranged by HR because two employees were conflicting. Another was arranged by a dad for his daughter because he was in upper management.

In Southwest Division, part-timers do not need to quit/reapply when transferring. They do not lose seniority/vacation/etc... so either it varies by region or you were given incorrect information.
