I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Evansville, IN) in Dec 2014
Interview
Fairly short interview with general questions directed at prior experiences, scenarios and how you would react as well as ethical questions. Chances are still good even without having prior retail experience.

Interview
First came the application online. I tell you that THD system gets more confusing for transfers and the like, AFTER you have hired on. I had a short phone interview to answer a few basic questions. Soon thereafter I was contacted to have an interview in the store. At the store, I met with HR rep and Assistant Manager for the interview.

Interview
Applied online at the company website, Which was a ton of questions mostly. Took over an hour. Then got a call to about a week later from corporate HR to confirm if I was still interested in the job. I said yes and the lady on the phone asked me some what would you do questions. Then I selected an interview date/time to come to the store and meet the stores co-manager. Met her and she asked similar questions as the HR's phone questionnaire. Also told me what section Id be working in. But not the pay. Plus that there was still one more interview to do. Got a call about a week later for the 2nd interview. But I already had a job by then. So I had to reject. Wish it was a quicker process. I would've chosen them.
