How to Get a Job at Home Depot
The Home Depot is very strict with job requirements. Because of a lot of contracts with government-backed agencies, they have to follow strict government regulations. When you apply for a job at The Home Depot, you have to have every skill on the job description or you won't be contacted. The recruiting process is very slow, so if you haven't heard from The Home Depot even though you meet every qualification, they probably haven't processed your application yet. There are some things you can do to be sure your application gets into the hands of someone responsible for hiring.

All of The Home Depot applications go to Atlanta for review. As positions open in the stores that you have chosen you will be contacted to set up an interview with the Associate Support Department Supervisor and the Store Manager. Depending on how well you interview and your fit for the position, you will be called back for a second interview. After all second interviews are completed you may or may not be hired. Dusty had it right there is no way to send a resume for an hourly store position. If you are one of the few people who wish to be hired in at a management level you would have to contact Atlanta directly to get your resume to them. Hope this helps -

Ok fist off they don't ask you for your resume or cover letter online, when ask to speak to a hiring manager, they give you a 1866 number. Lastly they don't ask for employee referral. So please get your answer right.
