      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Riverside, CA) in Apr 2012

      Interview

      I applied Tuesday, got an email letting me know I was going to get a call for a phone interview. I got the call, they asked 4 questions, how do you handle a difficult customer...why do you feel you are right for this position..tell me about a time when you had to meet a deadline.. so on n so fourth.. he explained how much the position paid, and the terms of employment then asked me if i was still interested. I then scheduled an interview for the following day. I went to the interview and then the interviewer asked me 6 questions, which he says are standard.. and then he had me talk to another supervisor, who then offered me the job. I was then sent to take a drug test and now I'm waiting to be called back after the background check.

      it was short and it was simple very quick and they hired me on the spot probably due to needing people and being short staffed, but the staff was nice and polite they did also send me an email before hand to schedule my interview
