Interviewed Nov 2011 in Haines City, FL (took a day)
The interview process takes from about 8am to 4pm. You interview with about six directors one-on-one. Mostly behavior type questions, your past, what you want out of the job, why you want the job, why you're a good fit, etc. You take a multiple choice written test that asks about 30 completely random questions (not too difficult but someone odd) and write two essays. Also go on a store tour nearby.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
I applied through my schools Career site, was invited to a pre-interview dinner. The day after I attended the dinner, I had a one on one interview. I was basically told at the end that they'd like to bring me on a site tour a few hours away from school. I went to that a few weeks later and received an e-mail saying I'd be mailed my offer package that day.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
Declined this offer because of the reputation of the company. My professors told me that previous students they'd had go work for Aldi said that they work you to the bone, you have no work/home balance, and that you do not form good relationships as a district manager (ie. with your peers -- which is important for me because I'd be moving to an entirely new place)
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview, an IQ/Intelligence Test and a Personality Test.

One on one behavioral interview first. Easy, straight-forward. Second interview involves visit to the office. Group Interview. Multiple one on one interview. Put on the spot for "hard" situations you might experience in the DM role. IQ test and Gas Money!

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Frederick, MD (took 2 weeks)
I went in for a first round interview lasting 20 mins (1:1) at my school's career center and within the same day heard back about the second round-interview at their office. They asked various scenario questions. The guy didn't write anything down, showed no emotion and made me very uneasy.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Saxonburg, PA (took 1 week)
I had two interviews at ALDI INC at their Saxonburg Division. The first one was with the VP of the division. We went over my resume and he presented some senarios and had me respond on how I would react.
I recieved a call the same day asking me to come back for a second interview, which took place about a week later. The second interview consisted of two seperate interviews, each with one of the two Directors of Operations. They tell you to relax and then they pretty much ask you to rehash your work and educational experiences. After going over my resume, both DORs pretty much asked me the same senario questions, which leads me to believe that they are looking for consistancy. Unfortunately, I gave different answers because I had time to think about the solutions between interviews and changed my mind(Probably didn't help my chances of getting the job)
Everybody was very friendly and I recieved a letter within a week stating that they would not be extending an offer to me at this time.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 4 days)
The interview process includes a mandatory presentation by ALDI representatives. Although the company doesn't say so, this presentation is really the first round of the interview. The representatives observe everything: where you sit, what you eat, what questions you ask, whether or not you text during, etc. Although the company will still interview applicants that "bust" this step, they don't seriously consider them.
Although I got farther in the process than here, I think this is the only tip I couldn't find elsewhere in the reviews posted.

Interviewed Oct 2010 in Cleveland, OH (took 2 days)
I first had an on campus interview that was relatively straight forward with questions like "what could you bring to aldi" "why do you want to work here", etc. I was invited back for an onsite interview with 2 other candidates. We took an intelligence test and had 3 more short interviews. After that we went on a store tour with a current district manager to learn more about the position. Overall it was a positive experience. While the compensation is great, you will be worked HARD. It's definitely a job that revoloves more around people management, so if that's not you (I quickly realized it wasn't for me during my on-site), you probably won't like the position.

The interviewer was really rushing. Try to get you out as early as possible.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 1 week)
The interview was stressed-based. Get ready to handle buzzing phones, the VP walking out on you as you enter, and questions, such as, "What would you do if you caught someone stealing?"
