I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Home Depot (West Hollywood, CA) in Aug 2010
Interview
My interview was scheduled for 11am, I arrived 20 min early. They did't see me till about 12pm.
I waited in the hallway, next to the KRONOS clock where the employees clock in/out. And hour + waiting is a bit time to wait, there is a lot of stuff to read and look at on the walls but try not to wander off (it will look bad) so you can look at it and keep you busy while you wait.
Dress up because first impressions for this Entry level job is very important!
Bring 2-3 Additional Resumes "with" your references and maybe a cover letter.
While in the interview, DON'T SLOUCH, Say "Umm", Don't fiddle with your fingers or tap your feet.
Even though there are paying entry level money, they are watching the way you handle yourself.
And most importantly of all....Be yourself!!!!
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What would your previous manager say about you if I called them right now?
The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Atlanta, GA) in Sep 2010
Interview
very basic interview format - 1st is a phone screen, the 2nd consists of a very easy interview where the person just reads a series of behavioral questions from the packet. Very disappointed because the process seems geared towards satisfying HR mandates than finding qualified applicants
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Minneapolis, MN) in Feb 2008
Interview
I was called by HR after applying on line. I had applied for a couple of areas in the store and pleased that I was called in for Kitchen Design/Sales. I met with HR and the Dept Head. I had projects with me and they were pleased that I was qualified and that I could sketch. It was easy to get the job because the store needed people and I had good background experience.
