Lowe's Home Improvement Sales/Retail Part Time interview questions

Applied online, conducted virtual intake with a chatbot, invited into store for a 30 minute in-person interview. Interview lasted no more than 10 minutes (only because I asked questions, after preparing extensively). I was almost immediately told that there wasn't actually an open role and even if there was, the schedule is so unfriendly (after being advertised as flexible) that I probably wouldn't want to work there anyways unless I didn't want to see my partner or family regularly.

They bring you in for an interview but it’s just for retail sales. Which is great. You only have to have a high school diploma or GED and be able to work in USA. when I got there the department was Lumber. I’m a female. I still wasn’t sure what I was interviewing for. The manager just said to me “you probably wouldn’t want to work in limber”. I said “ I’m happy to work in any department. I would probably be more effective in another department but I can learn anything”. I never even go a call back. When I checked in the HR girl said there wasn’t an opening for what I applied for. And they don’t have any other part time. I said full time? She said you can apply”. What a horrible situation. STEREOTYPED ME AS A FEMALE, NOT SMART ENOUGH TO LEARN ANYTHING. I have 20 years experience in sales. In a technical device field. They wouldn’t know. They don’t ask and they don’t look at a resume. Good luck if you’re a woman.
