      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Largo, FL) in Oct 2014

      Interview

      I applied online. I got an email confirming my application was received. 5 days later I got another email saying to expect a phone call from the home depot staff center to ask me a few questions about my application. I then received another email 2 days later to let me know I have an interview scheduled. My interview was set up for one week later. I went in for interview and was called a few days later to offer me the job pending background and drug test. I had to wait almost 2 weeks later to start. Entire process took one month..

      Application

      I interviewed at The Home Depot (Houston, TX)

      Interview

      It seemed quite organized and professional. They had some questions and then I had some and we went back and forth a few times. Not that difficult but something you need to be focused on.

      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      Short. Basic questions. Felt more like a standardized questionnaire. But much real interest in what I was interviewing for. They mentioned they prefer to hire within. I feel the offer was moderate and intention was to pull better qualified people, pay less and better positions are only offered from within.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Explain sales numbers and impact I had on them.
