I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Bowling Green, KY) in Aug 2014
Interview
The questions I was asked would have been for management to handle, not the employee therefore making it extremely hard to say what the interviewees want to hear. I was not prepared for some of the questions and not knowing exactly what they were looking for in my answers. Maybe a second interview would help by different personal in the future.

Question 1
What have you done before special for a customer? What mistake have you made and how did you correct it?
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Owatonna, MN) in Apr 2013
Interview
Applying is a long process and pretty tedious. You also have to do an assessment, which does matter and if you fail, they won't get your application. They'll call you pretty promptly to set up an interview (mine was a day later). You'll interview with the HR person and either the store manager or an ASM and it's pretty straightforward and easy, they're pretty relaxed about it.

Question 1
"Tell me about a time when you had an upset customer, and how did you deal with it?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Richmond, VA) in Apr 2014
Interview
The hiring process is one I'm pretty used to. You have your first interview where they ask you a few question ( 5 or sometimes more) and if you do good in the initial interview you get to come back on a different day for a second interview. If you do good and you get hired the HR manager will give you a call back and ask you to confirm your social security and birth date. She'll send out your background check and then they'll drug test you with a oral test. Pretty simple as long as you can come up with good answers

Question 1
There wasn't a difficult question but the background check did take a bit long. I applied for Lowe's two years ago and it didn't take that long at all. This one took like three weeks and I'm still not sure why. I got the job at least!
