The Home Depot Inc., the nation’s largest home center, is hiring more than 1,000 new employees across the country as part of its latest effort to improve its stores, according to two wire-service reports.

The Atlanta-based company said in a hiring advisory it issued that it is seeking applicants with specialty, skilled trades and professional contracting backgrounds for full-time and part-time jobs in numerous departments.

The hiring is part of Home Depot’s plan to invest another $350 million in its stores during the second half of this year as it tries to improve customer service amid a slowing economy.
