I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (San Dimas, CA) in May 2011
Interview
First interview you speak with the HR which is very simply asking very typical questions and asking for you to give an example of a situation of great customer service. The first interview was very lax, very easy, no pressure. The follow up interview which is conducted by who will be your area manager was a little bit of more pressure, but the same typical questions.

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.
