The process took 2 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Apple Valley, CA) in Apr 2009
Interview
I applied for the position and was called the next day. I was lucky. From talking with other associates, they had to wait longer sometimes up to four months. I interviewed with the operations manager who said they were interviewing applicants over the next two weeks and I would know within three weeks. I got a call the next to come back for a second interview with the Store Manager. He hired me and sent me to take a drug test.
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.
