It started with a creepy automated phone interview in which I had to indicate that I would be a doormat and make myself available 24-7 for only 20 hours a week and 10 bucks an hour. After demeaning myself enthusiastically, I was then scheduled for an interview at the Fenton, Michigan store. The first interview was with a guy, who was actually very nice and sent me on to the final interview, after I correctly said I wanted to work at Home Depot because "I like helping people." All of the questions were from the online questions and there was no apparent room for anything outside of the strict HD structure for anything else. He assured me that once you make it to the final interview, hardly anyone doesn't get the job, and that I should bring my ID for HR for the final hiring. I then interviewed with a woman who did not look me in the eye. She asked me, after asking similar standardized questions if I had any. I asked her what her management style was (a common interviewee question). She became very defensive as if it was some kind of affront. Not sure if she was just not very bright or if she was um, ill. Very strange behavior. Despite that, she assured me that HR would be calling me, and so I thought I would be hired. Several days later, I received a rejection directly from the Fenton store. Several days later, I received another phone call from their autorobot dude for an interview and I hung up in the middle. I received several phone calls since then. The second one, they asked me to come in again, which would have meant missing work at my job. I decided to call corporate to find out if I was hung up in some kind of computer loop. I mean, why would you reject someone and tell them they could reapply in 90 days and then keep bringing them in. I spent over an hour on the phone with several people. Two of them seemed unable to think outside of the Home Depot box and comprehend that I needed to know if the interview requests were automated or not. I simply didn't want to lose money and waste more time. A nice person finally investigated and told me that I had been offered a customer service job. It was right in their system. Then he said I had received interview requests for two jobs I actually would've loved to have. He said that local stores didn't have the authority to send rejections and that it had to come from corporate. He also assured me that I wasn't caught in a computer loop. He put me on hold, called the store and then came back and told me that it was a computer glitch and that I should apply at other stores. He said he had concerns about why I was listed as having been offered a position and that he was going to have HR call me, which they never did. A few days later, the manager called, but I was so disgusted by then, I didn't call her back. She said she heard I had questions. I believe HD has requested four or five more interviews since then. Prior to this experience, I had another HD interview at a different store for an office job. When I showed up for interview, a rude manager told me there was no such job. No one apologized to me for the wasted trip. After this latest experience, I am finished with Home Depot. I have spent over six thousand dollars in their store over the last two decades. This experience has severed our relationship.
