I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Richmond, VA) in Aug 2013
Interview
Even though I am a current Lowe's employee, I had to apply on line. However, I printed my resume and cover letter and hand delivered them to the HR Manager, (things don't look the same when they look at them on their monitor, or when they print them at the store). The interview was with the Store Manager and HR Manager in the Store Managers office.The interview took about an hour with questions from both managers.

Interview
Pretty straight forward retail interview, no real surprises. If you have ever gone through any other interview you will be just fine. Be ready to have at least 2 people in the room during the interview though, that's very common.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (North Western, NY) in July 2016
Interview
One interview with ASM Zone Manager, The other with HR. They used me for the 3rd interview. They already knew who they wanted. I am an internal employee. The entire process was a dog and pony show. A complete waste of my own time. They wonder why they have the lowest EOS scores in the region. After six weeks I had to call them. That is the last time I will apply for a Dept. Mgr position with Lowes. Unfortunately, that's how they also treat top-performers within the company.
