The process took 4 months. I interviewed at The Home Depot in Sep 2013
Interview
Every time I fill out an app, I get this weird automatic call followed by a few questions from a real person. On maybe the third time I got called in for an interview at the store via automatic call. She asked pretty much the same questions as the person on the phon and was very pleasant. It lasted maybe five minutes and then asked if I had any questions for her. I asked them smiled and really thought I showcased why I would be a good fit, but I was never called back.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Houston, TX) in Oct 2012
Interview
I had an initial phone interview and then an interview with the specialty manager and then the store manager. The entire process took about two weeks and everyone involved was really nice. They really tried to promote this concept of Success Sharing as an additional means of income that occurs twice a year but the payouts for most associates was $100-200 dollars and by no means justified not paying commissions or a higher hourly pay.

Question 1
There were no difficult questions. They asked about my previous work experience in sales and with appliances. They asked how important customer service was and how I would potentially react with an unruly customer. All the basic retail questions.
I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Peoria, AZ) in Jan 2011

I filled out an online application. From there I was contacted via telephone and did an interview in that medium. I was then contacted by the store and asked to come in for an interview. Fortunately, I was hired on the spot and sent to get my drug testing done and signed a release for the background check. Within a week I was being scheduled for training.
