I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Schererville, IN) in Mar 2011
Interview
Applied on company website for several entry level jobs ,some were seasonal work some were full time .I was called in for an interveiw with H R person .Typical 8 questions about how you reacted in given situations ,for instance how did you ever go out of your way to assist a customer ,or how did you perform in a group situation at your last job.
It seemed very professional and structured ,then I was told that I would be contacted if I was considered for the job ,for a second interview .A week later I was called in for a second interview with one of the zone managers .It was very laid back and we got along great, after some talk he said lets get on to the questions and get this going .
I felt everything went perfect and was confident that I would get the job . Well a week later I went to the store to shop ,I saw the same zone manager and he said that they choose someone else for the position .He said try and apply again ,I did for at least 10 different jobs and was never called

Interview
2 weeks after applying online I was called by Human Resource Manager for an interview. She wanted me to come in that day but I wanted to do some homework so we scheduled for the next day. I was first interviewed by HR manager for 15 min. then interviewed by the assistant store manager for another 15 min. Essentially I was asked almost all the questions posted on glassdoor.com so I was well prepared. All of their questions were predetermined and they were easy going.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement in Apr 2011
Interview
Applied for several jobs at Lowes on March 30th. Was offer an interview on April 1st. Consisted of interviews with hiring personnel and Asst. Store Manager. It was real pleasent and calm. Looking @ information on this site really help w/some of the questions they asked me like: Why do u want to work here, what is customer service to u, etc. I made sure tohave an understanding of their mission statement, before I got there and also to keep using the word "customer Service" when answering the questions. Always made eye contact and showed patience because they do get stopped a lot and have to answer pagers and phones from being busy.
Was told after interview that I would be contacted, once they did a background check and was still interested. Took about 10 days and was contacted to come in for a drug test and was offer position of delivery. Will offer opinion on workplace when I've had orientation this week.
