I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement in May 2011
Interview
First you sit down with the HR manager for a 30 minute structured interview. Then you get 30 minutes with one of the store managers. All the question are predetermined by Lowe's. They score your answers based on certain things they are looking for in the answer. If you do good you will be called back for a final interview by a different store manager to validate the first interviewers opinion.

Question 1
They ask a lot of questions that start with " Think of a time when" and then they go into something like you were given a order that you thought was wrong or you had a conflict with a customer or co-worker. Then you are supposed to explain how you would handle it.
