      Department Manager Interview

      9 Aug 2009
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot in Mar 2009

      Interview

      The interviewer was a department manager in the store, but had very little knowledge about the department manager position for which I was applying. I was asked questions about my previous experience in retail and interior design. I had a second interview with the store manager who questioned me about how I would motivate my department to achieve and exceed sales targets. Be prepared to offer motivational techniques for sales associates.

      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Omaha, NE) in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Very easy streamlined process. Home depot is looking for talent to join their teams. The lack of knowledge is apparent in any store you visit. I'm hoping for decent pay.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Minneapolis, MN) in Aug 2019

      Interview

      Not willing to tell you what job you are applying for and then telling you you're hired but after working they tell you your title is not for the job you interviewed for. That you have to do due dilegence first and by the way, they offered job to a man already.
