I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Huntsville, AL) in Mar 2012
Interview
Applied online. Few days later, received a call from HR. Had to answer a few automated questions, and once done, the call was transferred to a human. Had to answer a few more questions related to customer assistance and had to give hours I was available. During the phone call, I was scheduled for an interview at the store 2 days later. Took close to an hour to meet with manager at face-to-face interview. No one knew where I was supposed to go and manager was no where to be found/busy. Answered a few more questions for manager and was offered the job immediately. Was given a form and directions to clinic for my drug test. Said it'll take 3-4 days for background check and test results to be available.

just a conversation with the HR team, asked the basic questions and nothing to stressful. they made the process very easy and the interview was actually truely with only one single person
5 minutes not even an interview just acceptance. I walked in and they said when can you start and if I can submit to a drug test and background check I said yes and left.
I applied online. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Corvallis, OR)
Interview
The interview process was a friendly and professional experience overall. The managers are nice and accommodating to students at least at this location as I was a current student at Oregon state university and needed to work around a college schedule.
