I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Garland, TX) in Sep 2013
Interview
Filled out an application online. Got an automated call the next day. Following the automated call was a phone interview the same day. They just told me about the position and then scheduled an in-store interview for me a few days later. I went in the morning and interviewed with either the assistant or store manager. Dress business casual. Probably the easiest interview I've had. She just read a couple behavioral questions from a packet and asked about my work history. She told me she wanted the department supervisor to interview me before she hired me so I had to come back in the evening. I got there fifteen minutes early and waited over thirty minutes before the supervisor showed up. He told me about the job and what he expected from his workers. I guess he was not impressed with me because I wasn't hired on the spot. The manager and he told me that they were still interviewing other candidates so the entire day was basically a wash.

Question 1
No trick questions; it's just a standard interview.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Keller, TX) in Jul 2022
Interview
Asked questions about lifting restrictions and schedule. Then you fill out a form online for them to do a background check. Then you do a drug test using the saliva swab.
Easy. To the point. Started with a talk with the HR rep followed by a hiring Manager. Normally an assistant store manager does this. Questions where easy to answer and the overall situation was laid back.
Easy behavioral type questions throughout the whole interview. Casual laid back process throughout every step. No need to stress over the interview. HR manager just asked for experience and that pretty much sealed the deal.
