I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Scottsdale, AZ) in Nov 2014
Interview
Called me, came in for an interview. Wore a button-down and jeans. It's Lowe's, so a strict dress code is not really a thing there. Make sure you look presentable and wear something with a collar - appears that most managers wear that, so that's a good rule of thumb. Day-to-day, the dress code is very relaxed. They told me at the beginning of the interview that they'd be giving me a call back afterward to offer the job to me, but at the end of the interview they offered the job to me.

Question 1
Describe a time where you messed something up and had to make up for it.
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.
