I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Galway) in Apr 2018
Interview
The first stage was the online application, this consisted of multiple choice and scenario based questions along with a few simple maths equations. It's rather time consuming and took about 45 minutes to complete. About a week later I got called to attend a group assessment, there were only 3 of us there so it was fairly relaxed. The Area team manager was very friendly and explained the role and told us a bit about the history of the company. We were then given a couple of maths tests, similar to the application form just simple adding, subtracting, multiplication and dividing. Then we were given a group assignment where we were stranded on a desert island and asked to list items from 1 - 12 in order of importance. This is to see how well we work as a team. The whole assessment lasted about 40 minutes. I then got an email about a week later inviting me to a one on one assessment. The one on one interview took about 30 minutes, the area manager was very friendly and put me at ease. I was asked to tell her a bit about myself and then went through my cv. This was followed by a few scenario based question, what to do if there's a spillage on the floor and your the only member of staff around etc. I got an email the next day saying I passed this stage and inviting me to a 2 hour store experience next week.
Had a group online interview and I felt it was very hard to get any point across and it felt very over the top and the process seemed too long for what the job actually was
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
