I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Long Island City, NY) in Oct 2011
Interview
Applied online Got a call a week later from automated messaging system. Answered a few questions pretty much what was online. Next day got an email saying to call 877 number to schedule interview with store. Took 1 week to get an appointment because the manager did not list interview schedule with HR. Went for the interview and associate manager was not in for work that day and was interviewed by her assistant. interview went well lots of hypethatical questions. was asked to wait outside to while she talked to HR managers in the next room to see if she can ask for an appointment for second interview. When she comes back she said they actually want to interview you now. Met with Hr manager it was a 2:1 interview but the second person acted like he wasnt paying attention (but he really was). was offered the position for 10.50/hr and got the job permently not seasonal. Received drug test form and had 48 hrs to complete it. Took the drug test with quest diagnostics and had not heard since. Now heres the issue took something to take care of the drug test issue (gnc flush). I know if i failed I would of received a call saying I failed. So i called lexis nexis and they said they had my results the next day with that info I called the stores hr back and the lady said she was waiting for the final paper work to come in and she would give me a call still waiting for the call. Ive heard the background check is what takes a lengthy time but if i failed the drug test they wouldnt bother with a background check and Im pretty sure the woman would have told me I failed and we retract the offer. She knew who I was and responded back quite nicely but left me hanging with wait for her call.
