I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Atlanta, GA) in Aug 2011
Interview
Submitted resume online. Got a call from a recruiter 8-9 days after that. Had 2-3 short phone chats with 2 different internal recruiters. Then had 2 phone interviews with hiring manager. Very positive discussions. Mostly went over my resume. I asked a good amount of questions, too. Brought into HQ for a battery of 6 1:1s with various people I would be working with. One afternoon, 6 people. It was a pleasant experience. Some interviewers were better than others -- would say most not particularly skilled at interview best practices. All in all -- a decent experience. Only ding I would give is to the internal recruiting team. They seemed to have a very sporadic grip of administrative details leading up to the face-to-face interviews -- scheduling times to talk, canceling, making assumptions that I could be available with short notice, etc. Once I got to HQ, the process was quite smooth.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had a difficult internal client. How did you handle that?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Atlanta, GA) in Apr 2023
Interview
I was first contacted by the Talent Acquisition team to setup some time. This is a casual interaction to share prior experience and align on fundamental expectations of the role as an employer and as a candidate. If this goes well, then there is a first round of behavioral interview with possibly two leaders (usually right above the role you are applying for). Once you pass this you will have another interview with either the manager or stakeholders to identify if you are a fit for that role culturally as well as personality wise. Its a straight forward process and well established.

It went great. I was looking for another manager position and home depot was right around the corner from my house. I did not accept the job as I came across another great opportunity.

Interview
Multiple rounds. Hiring manager with structured interview guide, and peer-to-peer to assess fit. If you progress will interview w/ Director or Sr. Director of the team. If the role warrants it, for example some very analysis heavy, there will be a case study as well.
