I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Indianapolis, IN) in Feb 2014
Interview
Part-time positions advertised at stores & online. Applied online. Received robo call to expect a call about job opening & phone interview. Received call / set-up interview with HR manager. Simple interview. Asked to walk store to familiarize myself with the store & think of any questions I might have. Walked the floor for about 1/2 hour & talked with other associates about their jobs & how they liked working for Home Depot. All positive.
I believe I was probably being observed on CCTV to watch my actions & interactions with others. Invited to meet store manager. Simple interview with some customer / associate interaction questions & my personal feelings about shopping & dealing with others. Offered a different position (no pay difference) & something I felt might be more to my liking.

Question 1
None. Actually the whole process was quite laid back, casual & comfortable. The "walk around" the store was probably the most unusual event in the whole process.

Interview
I applied online. I received an automated call that described the job requirements and asked me questions about if I was willing to work the hours and for the pay rate. I was then scheduled for a personal interview. I went in to the store and interviews with an assistant manager.

Question 1
What makes you an outstanding candidate for this position and why should we hire you?
Very casual interview with both of the night shift managers. They were very down to earth. The whole process only took about two weeks once I had applied for night shift work during the summer. They asked about myself and how I found out about the job, mostly checking to see if I would be a fit for the team.
