I applied online. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Austin, TX) in July 2013
Interview
Contacted both by phone and email to call in and use a confirmation number. Eventually spoke to a representative that told me the pay rate and asked two questions. Answered the questions and was told I would be contacted by the store. Not contacted by anyone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Easy questions. Provide an example of how you went above and beyond to provide good customer service. How would you provide a good shopping experience for a customer at the home depot?
20-minute interview, asked scenario-based questions and experiences with customer service. The interview had a video call component and an in-person interview. The interview had questions about comfort with learning new programs and asked about availability.
it was short and it was simple very quick and they hired me on the spot probably due to needing people and being short staffed, but the staff was nice and polite they did also send me an email before hand to schedule my interview

Question 1
They asked several questions but due to the fact that I was so over qualified...it was 'how soon can you start".
