Home Depot Lot Associate Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Filled out an online application. Three days later received an email that said i was going to be receiving a call. I received the call and a lady asked me some Yes or No questions and gave me some times to choose from to go in for my 1 on 1 interview. The 1 on 1 interview was short but successful, the lady said she would be giving me a call back and she did within a week and said " We would like to extend the job opportunity to you if you are still interested" . Once i said yes, she told me to come in to fill out the background check information paper and to go take a drug test, and she would call to let me know when orientation will begin.

Negotiation Details – No.

Interview Details – Interview is pretty straight foward. Run of the mill situational "tell me about a time" type questions. They just want to know how you would or how have you handled stress, mad customers, and boss breathing down your neck. It can take a while for them to call you back but once they do, it moves fairly quickly. Within a couple of weeks you should be in a store

Interview Details – Received a call first from an automated staffing service. After going through the options, a real person got on the phone. They asked whether I could perform the essential duties. After speaking to them, they set up an interview for the following week.

Interview Details – its a 2 interview process. 1st on the phone, second in person.
the phone interview is generally a competency test,they ask how you would act in a situation where customers are arguing or cant find a product.
the second interview is more of a confidence test, where theyll just kind of see if you are neat and ask you what the job is and if you think you can do it. the face to face means youre already in, this job is more of a first come 1st serve kind of thing.

Negotiation Details – i didnt negotiate pay, since it was my 1st time above minimum wage, from what the other associates told me, they've been steadily dropping the wages on new hires, so aim for about 9.

Interview Details – I applied online they called me up for a interveiw a few weeks later.

Negotiation Details – There was no negotiation on the pay it was just a little above minimum wage

Interview Details – Easy. Background check. Trial in-apron to see if you like the job.

Negotiation Details – Respectful, honest, they let you know upfront what is expected. they want you to be goal oriented. They like to use incentives.

Interview Details – Fairly straight forward hiring process. Begins online with basic info, skills, personality test, and basic IQ check. If that all checks out, a call center will call, ask a few more questions and verify info. Of course, if that all goes well, the HR at the store will call to schedule interview. Interview also fairly simple. Either the department manager will interview if they are available, if not the next manager in line will, if they aren't available, the HR manager will interview. If initial interview goes well, you will interview with the store manager. If that goes well you will be given directions to drug test and schedule orientation. As far as the attitude they're looking for, I'd say "Motivated" and "Self Starter" (As in you don't need a manager around to keep you working.) would be things to keep in mind.

Negotiation Details – As a non skilled or sales position, I wasn't given the opportunity to negotiate. If interviewing for a skilled/sales position you may be able to negotiate to 3-5% above lowest expected rate, based on previous experience/skills and of course how well the interview went.
