I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement in Mar 2008
Interview
You fill out an online background form. They invite you in for a personality test and faace-to-face interviews with at least 2 managers. If you pass the drug test, they will make you an offer based on current openings. Most of the timie they offer a part-time position. Take it, because they usually convert the part timers they like to full time after a few months.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you were faced with a difficult situation. How did you overcome it?
I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Zephyrhills, FL)
Interview
Rather easy interview process. There were only a handful of questions that were pretty standard for a retail position. When the interview was scheduled, I was told it was one person, but ended up being another person conducting the interview, which wasn't a big deal, but when you go in to the place it's nice to ask for the correct person.

Question 1
When was a time that you've gone above and beyond for a customer?
It was Easy and I was able to get the job done. It was a good experience and I had a great time. Questions asked were about my experience with home improvement.
Pretty easy interview. Basic questions about work history. What experience you have pertaining to the role. A few scenario questions about customer interaction and teamwork. Pretty much show confidence you can handle the job.
