I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Gloucester Courthouse, VA) in Sep 2024
Interview
My interviewer asked basic questions, which were nothing too difficult. They are looking for how you handled past situations and want more than just one or two sentences, try to tell them the story from start to end with details but at the same time make sure you are not talking about the same story for 2+ minutes.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you worked alongside another coworker to help a customer.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Shirley, NY)
Interview
Interviewed for Home Depot by request of the ASMs at the time (2013]
I was already a Vendor there for another company and hardware was the department I was in , doing my job of making keys, AND also helping customers around the store in other departments because customers think I'm an employee so I basically was an associate but without the orange apron.
I've already had 7 years experience being a vendor for Lowes, Walmart AND Walmart , so I know my stuff.
All the ASMs were impressed with my hard work ethic. So Marlene and Rob the ASMs kept asking me to cross over and work for them.
So it's interview time and to make a long story short.
Marlene offers me the position of "Cart Pusher"
I politely declined but I was livid inside.
Humiliated, offended that after all I've proved to them , I was offered their lowest position despite my knowledge of the whole store and where things are AND at that time, I also was the vendor at 2 other Home Depots . Guess that wasn't enough to even be a cashier.
Glad I Dodged that bullet!
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Brandon, MB) in Dec 2024
Interview
The online interview was about 30minutes. There were questions like, tell me about yourself, why home Depot? and some other behavioral questions that borders on customer service. I used the SVAR techniques for the behavioural questions and focused on customer service when answering all the questions.
