I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Netherton, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
I applied online (which was tedious) and was invited to an informal interview at the store, the interviewer was really friendly and the interview lasted about 5 minutes. A few days later I was invited via email to a 2 hour job trial. I was shown into the stock room and I had to use a jack/trolley to cart out heavy boxes onto the shop floor and then out the stock out. It was a very intense 2 hours but I was told, and I felt like I'd done a good job. Just under a week later, I received an email saying I was unsuccessful (so essentially, I did 2 hours of work for no cash). So, um, yeah. Screw you, Aldi!
Started as a group where we were educated on the history and benefits about working at ALDI, and were asked what we think working at ALDI is like. Seemed like a good company with fair pay. The individual interview itself only asked availability.
I was first givwn the opportunity to join a group assessment, which I passed. I was then asked to attend a face-to-face interview, in-store but the manager did not come into work that day and I was asked to rearrange the interview after waiting for over an hour. Another applicant also turned uo and waited 30 minutes after I arrived
