I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Vauxhall, NJ) in Jun 2012
Interview
Short and stupid. Asked silly questions about helping customers, which by the way they tell you later isn't part of this jobs title. The manager who interviewed me was so loud and unprofessional. He kept trying to put me on the spot with questions and it seemed to me he didn't think I knew enough to answer correctly.

Question 1
What is the best way to help a customer if you don't know about a product?
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2015
Interview
Applied online then got a phone call from the corporate office they asked four questions then said to for a phone call from the store I applied to. I'm still waiting. In the mean time I applied to other locations. They were hiring a ton of people for the spring season so I'm sure a lot of people applied.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot in Feb 2014
Interview
First there was a phone screening, first part is automated then you talk to a real HR representative at the call center in Atlanta. The representative told me the hours I'd be working and the pay, then asked me a couple questions about experiences, then he said I passed and scheduled an in person interview for the following day at the store I applied at.
My interview was with the supervisor of the Merchandising team. He explained the job in detail to me, and what was expected of all his employees. Then we went to his office for me to answer about 8 questions about past experience. The job's hours are good for morning people (6am-10am), weekends off, it's 20 hours a week, with the pay being $9.50. Not bad having a set schedule in retail! I accepted his offer.
