I applied in-person. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at ALDI in Sept 2009
Interview
The district manager asked me about my reasons for interest in Aldi, reaction to certain types of situations then ended with mostly background questions, about drug use and criminal history. The interview was mostly answering factual questions about myself while the rest consisted of questions about made up situations that I may come across while working as a cashier at the grocery store at any given time and also how I would react and deal with the different types of customers I would encounter on a daily basis. It was easier than anticipated but a little different from most of the other interviews I have had at retailers. I thought it went well and was surprised I did not get a call back, though they were interviewing a lot of people for only one or two positions in his area but still thought i did pretty well in the interview.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How would you deal with a customer that was mad at you for something?
Group interview, 7am. Took a brief tour of the store, manager asked questions throughout. Speak up and answer questions during the tour. Then pulled into offices separately for 10-15 minute interviews.
Not difficult at all. There is a two step interview process where the first one you meet with the manager and the second you meet with the general district manager.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at ALDI (Georgetown, TX) in Nov 2025
Interview
Management completely disorganized didn't know they set up "group" interviews. It wasn't group it was a 1 on 1 ...2 minute conversation. Recieved a denial email wow you made a decision after 2 minutes. This company is a joke
