I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement in Apr 2010
Interview
I applied online and received a call from the human resource manager within 3 days of applying. My first and second interviews, which were with the HRM and the sales manager, were conducted on the same day within an hour apart. The HRM called me the next day to schedule the third interview with the store manager. After talking to the store manager for about 10-15 minutes, he offered me a cashier position.
The first two interviews consisted of questions..."Tell me an experience where you were misinformed by a boss. or Tell me an experience where you gave the wrong information to someone." The answers can be based on school or employment experience. The third interview questions were the typical questions you would expect..."Why do you want to work for Lowe's, etc."

I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Yonkers, NY)
Interview
It starts with an online application, sometimes followed by a short 15–20 minute phone or video screen where a recruiter checks your availability, experience and communication skills. After that, you’ll have an in-person interview with the hiring manager covering customer service, teamwork and basic job capabilities, with questions like how you’d handle a price dispute or a short register drawer.

They asked me personal questions like hobbies I do and stuff outside of work. Asked about prior experience. The usual stuff. No questions like what would you do in this situation.
