I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Birmingham, AL) in Oct 2009
Interview
I applied for a position at a store that was newly built. I orginally went with my sister and decided to apply myself. They had paper applications and they were set up at the Jameson Inn because the store was not yet suitable for people. It took them about 3 weeks to contact me because my number was wrong. They actually contacted me at the jobs I was employeed at and my manager told me they called. After I completed my first interview I had a second interview and I was offered a job. The pay was more than I expected but I still negotiated for a little bit more.
I applied online. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Marietta, GA)
Interview
I applied online and a few weeks later they sent me an online assessment to complete. After that they sent me an email to select an interview date and time. I was then interview twice. The first time was all situation based questions. After this interview I was asked to wait in the lobby and then had a second interview the same day. The second time they asked why do you want to work here and other basic questions. Although another candidate said during their second interview they were asked about the history of Home Depot. After the second interview I was asked to wait in the lobby again. I was offered a job that day before I left pending a background check and drug test.
