I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ALDI (Brooklyn, NY) in Aug 2012
Interview
it is a two or three interview process, in my case i first met with the recruiter, who gave me and a group of applicant a quick ALDI history lesson, and then pre-screened us. If you qualified, which i did, then you were sent to meet with the directors; same day, different room, if you did not get selected then they would just say thanks for coming. Shortly after meeting with the directors I received a call to meet at a different day with a store manager. After the last meeting I received another call the get the drug test and background check. Orientation was 3 days later.

Interview
They want you to stand in front of a mirror so that they can evaluate you before the interview. Then you are asked a series of questions about what you think the position is by the district manager. Afterwards a store manager takes you around the store and is especially interested in your reaction to being in the freezer.
