I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Jacksonville, NC) in Feb 2016
Interview
The Hiring manager brings you back to their office and introduces themselves. They look at your application and your availability and your experience. They ask you about your prior work history and if you have experience working in a home improvement store. They are listening to how you speak, how you look, and how you present yourself. After the interview they explain they will offer you the position or tell you that they have a few more interviews to conduct and they will get back to you.

Question 1
How would you help a customer out if they asked you about something you weren't familiar with.
I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Zephyrhills, FL)
Interview
Rather easy interview process. There were only a handful of questions that were pretty standard for a retail position. When the interview was scheduled, I was told it was one person, but ended up being another person conducting the interview, which wasn't a big deal, but when you go in to the place it's nice to ask for the correct person.

Question 1
When was a time that you've gone above and beyond for a customer?
It was Easy and I was able to get the job done. It was a good experience and I had a great time. Questions asked were about my experience with home improvement.
Pretty easy interview. Basic questions about work history. What experience you have pertaining to the role. A few scenario questions about customer interaction and teamwork. Pretty much show confidence you can handle the job.
