I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at The Home Depot (New York, NY) in May 2021
Interview
The HR departments worked really well. They were very helpful, responsive and friendly.
First one HR reached out to me and mentioned that I would be able to apply for the analyst roles at different level and interviewer would make their decision.
The interviews were scheduled really fast. First HR screening, then Hiring manger interview, then teammates interview with 4-5 people (including SQL tech interview). The media analytics team was also really nice. They all have very good understanding about their business.
Got an initial offer the day after the team interview and official offer letter early next week. The HRs were also willing to answer all the questions I had.
However, I got some personal reason and had to decline the offer. Would definitely apply again in the future.

Question 1
How do you explain some analytical terms to the stakeholders who are not familiar with data?
Started out with an SQL assessment followed by a general questionnaire.
I was then given a case study and final conversation with the senior manager regarding my experiences. The whole process took around 2 months total
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Atlanta, GA) in Feb 2023
Interview
The Interview Process was long, with not much transparency. I first had a phone screening then a dual interview where both interviewers did not say much. There were vague descriptions of the job role but not much excitement.

Question 1
They asked me did I have experience leading a team.
Initial phone screening and an hour interview. The interview was technical with behavioral questions. It was good. Do prepare for the technical interview since it covers variety areas. For each technical question try to support with a use case on what you are trying to solve. They are more interested about your ability to interpret the problem you are trying to solve.
