What type of degree do you need to become a design consultant at a home improvment store?

Like Lowe's or Home Depot. I have a knack for interior design but want to get my feet wet and make sure that's what I want to do before I jump into 4 years of design school. Any info would be great.

I think you just have to show your talent...in design you either go for being an ASID...which would take years and years plus a lot of dirty work..they are the best of the best...Lowe's and Home Depot can't even hire people with that education.....decorate several friends homes , take pictures and go for it.....I have no training and have decorated friends houses for over 30 years.....
Reply:Why not design about four rooms in color and ask to speak to the store manager. Show him what you have done and ask him what their requirements are. He may hire you on the spot
Reply:I'd guess architecture degree, because you have to know how to mount them. . Maybe even a certificate in Electricity, to power various combinations of lights.





And knowing someone helps, too.
Reply:if you want to work at lowes or home depot i think you need to be able to tie your shoes and find your butt with both hands
Reply:home economics with emphasis in interior design
Reply:I think it's more important to have impressive work history to get a consultant job. A school with a prestigious name will help, too probably.
