Some of my managers have become my bigger brothers and my bigger sisters. Merchandising is a very physical job. By the end of the day, I’ve usually walked about seven to eight miles. When I started working here, I thought it was going to be like any other job, where they just like okay you are just another worker, but not here. Here they treat you like family. They want you to do your job fast.

Customer service skills is one of the main things that Home Depot has truly truly helped me out with. And I can take this anywhere. I feel confident to maybe one day open my own small business. A 401k is an amazing program we have here. So from a culture standpoint, we have partners not employees because we want to seek their feedback.
401K has been very helpful to me. I have never had a 401K on any job I’ve ever had and this one was the first. They are taking care of me and I thank them for that every day. Some of my co-workers have become my brothers and my sisters.

If you have an apartment, if you have a home, if you want to go out on your own and do contractor handyman work, you’re going to learn so much. Vacation time and the company is very good if you need a day off. They have been very good about working with me.
My gosh, the benefits are even better than I thought. We get the employee stock purchase plan. You have a store of people that are willing to help you accomplish your goal. Because it’s like one big family.

I do love working for The Home Depot, because I just think it’s a wonderful place to work. I love the bonding, co-workers, and most of all I like the advancement that the company has. The specific accommodation requested to complete the employment application. Lots of trucks coming inbound to unload and then we are loading trucks to go to stores, so there is a lot of forklift traffic.
The Home Depot is an Equal Opportunity/M/F/Vet/Disabled Employer. Available positions may vary by location. Bilingual candidates are encouraged to apply. Click here to view Federal Labor Law posters.
I still have time to do things in the afternoon and in today’s economy, you want to have a job you know is going to be there. They are not getting ready to go out of business. I’ve been in other industries and I would never leave Home Depot, because I love the working environment. I love my fellow peers and my management team. They’re wonderful people to work with. Your focus is making sure the products have a label, they’re clean, they’re stocked, just that everything looks, what they call, grand opening ready.
You have to be willing to work independently. You have to be willing to work quickly. If you stay busy and keep working, you’ll notice that the nights and things go by as fast as possible. The kind of problems I solve are anything mundane from how to fix a sink. Sometimes it’s crazier stuff like hey my kid needs to build a T-REX out of pvc. And the things you learn on the job are things that can directly help you.
This position makes equipment recommendations and ensures that units are maintained. Technicians work in both our stores with Tool Rental Centers and in our repair centers. In addition to supporting customer repair needs, they are also responsible for the day-to-day operation and maintenance of equipment in the tool rental department. Technicians must have a thorough knowledge of all tools and must effectively manage the tool inventory by maintaining the tools and repairing them as necessary. So the work that we do here at night is basically we unload trucks.
There’s sometimes where I’ve been able to take nights off, but work a little bit longer on another night. So they’ve been very flexible. It’s challenging, but that’s a good thing if that makes sense, because there’s a lot going on. You’re not just doing one thing, you’re doing several things at one time. With stores, distribution centers, and corporate offices across the country, your next opportunity might be right around the corner.
I needed something that was going to go around my schedule out of the building. I was able to come in and work in the morning, which is usually about six o’clock to maybe twelve o’clock. And then I went to school and then came back and closed the store, like from five to ten pm. And there is always an available store, if I was to move state to state in a transfer. Our main focus is getting product in front of customers quickly.
