I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot in Aug 2010
Interview
Simple and straight forward. Had to work through several role-play scenarios. If applying for a specific department, will be asked how you contribute to that skillset. The approach was not intimidating whatsoever.
Negative experience
Easy interview
Application
I applied in-person. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Gilbert, AZ) in July 2013
Interview
Apparently Corporate in Atlanta is supposed to call you to do a phone interview. In my case I submitted my application online and had to follow up with the store a month after. They decided to bypass the phone interview and scheduled me for a face to face interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The ask you basic explain a time when you helped a angry customer, or when you needed to learn about a product. Pretty much standard questions
