Doing an online job app and got this question.... ?

Alexander · 05-26-2010, 12:23 PM

WTF? I feel like an idiot; I have no idea what they want me to do.

E36_325i · 05-26-2010, 12:31 PM

Put the numbers in numerical/alphabetical order.

For example, the answer to number 1 is the 2nd bubble.

lambtron · 05-26-2010, 12:32 PM

1=1,3,4,2 2= 3,2,1,4 3= 1,4,2,3 (i think, haha) 4= 2,4,3,1

southlight · 05-26-2010, 12:35 PM

3,1,4,2 (first who gets this one

)

3,2,1,4

1,4,2,3

2,4,3,1

Best regards,

Just a part time job at the Home Depot while taking a full load of classes.

Alexander · 05-26-2010, 01:03 PM

My brother was a delivery driver for a sandwich shop in college and because of that once he graduated he became a Manager at a upscale restaurant... Job history is extremely important these days and while I am in grad school sitting on my ass during Friday-Sunday I might as well get a job!

Feyd · 05-26-2010, 01:05 PM

This is impressive for a Home Depot test...

OP, when you get the job, please be helpful and know where shit is in the store. Everyone I've ever gotten help from at Home Depot (any HD for that matter) has been a complete waste of space.

After exhausting my "common sense knowledge" of where a can of WD-40 could be (door hinge section/lock section/fastener section/tool section/adheasive section) I got directed by three separate HD employees to three different locations. All of them were wrong.

I finally spotted someone with a can in their cart and asked them where it was. This example is WD-40, but rest asured I've had this happen looking for all sorts of stuff there.

Then make sure you bring this up at your first meeting.

BTM · 05-26-2010, 02:13 PM

X2 on Home Depot help being worthless

Hope you get the job

TMNT · 05-26-2010, 08:54 PM

I took this test before as well (I used to work at HD part time while in college a took this test to get a corporate job).

I never got a call back or anything...for any of the jobs I applied for...oh well, I ended up getting a much better job with a different company later

Oh and I used to know where EVERYTHING was in our store...but I guess I might have been the exception.

radix · 05-26-2010, 08:57 PM

e.g. MSD Radix sort

In my experience that might have been what kept you out.
