I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ALDI (London, England) in July 2018
Interview
The interview process consists of 3 stages telephone screening then an online assessment then a face to face interview with the area manager, it is a relatively quick process and they let you know fairly soon after if you are successful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
why do you want ot work for Aldi ?
why do you think you would you be good at your role
You walk through an aisle and go into the back of the building where they keep their products and loading dock is located. This takes place in a group setting where they do all the talking while taking questions occasionally so make sure to speak up and seem engaged because it is your only chance to really stand out. They then will split up the interviewers and have you basically pick which person to talk to in a 5min or shorter face to face in the back of a store. It was very odd and not normal, but they then will send you on your way, but the whole time they will know within the time someone is done with that who they will take. Very unique and odd experience.

Question 1
They ask the same thing every single time company wide.
There will be a "casual" walk around that is used to evaluate your ability to move quickly which is a huge part of the job. Keep up and don't get winded; ask questions.
