I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement in Sep 2011
Interview
I was recently interviewed for a customer service assistant position in which I would help to cut materials for cutomers and assist customers in finding what they need. I was interviewed first by the HR manager and then by another manager. The process took about 2 hours with some waiting in between interviews. I had researched questions they might ask and was feeling pretty confident. Afterwards I was told I would be called in 2-3 days to set up an interview with the store manager. however after 2 days I called the HR manager and was told the position had been filled. Either I hadn't answered the questions right or they found someone more qualified as I have little to no experience.

Question 1
Describe a time when you had to work as team with a co-worker what was the task and how did you go about completing it?
I interviewed at Lowe's Home Improvement (Zephyrhills, FL)
Interview
Rather easy interview process. There were only a handful of questions that were pretty standard for a retail position. When the interview was scheduled, I was told it was one person, but ended up being another person conducting the interview, which wasn't a big deal, but when you go in to the place it's nice to ask for the correct person.

Question 1
When was a time that you've gone above and beyond for a customer?
It was Easy and I was able to get the job done. It was a good experience and I had a great time. Questions asked were about my experience with home improvement.
Pretty easy interview. Basic questions about work history. What experience you have pertaining to the role. A few scenario questions about customer interaction and teamwork. Pretty much show confidence you can handle the job.
