I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Widnes, England) in Jun 2018
Interview
Applied online and went through the whole process of inputting CV details, work history etc. Did an online test which took around 30-40 minutes. The next day I recieved an email asking me to book onto a group assesment at one of their stores - the nearest date was around a month away. I went to the interview on the day, it was scheduled for 8am and 3 of us (women) turned up, but I think a few more were expected as the Area Manager(?) kept going out checking. Started out with a (timed) 5 minute maths test, 10 questions. The others didn't complete it, but I finished in 4 minutes, with the manager giving me a nudge with one question at the end. He then asked us about ourselves, and proceeded to ask us as a group what we knew about ALDI. Then he got us to write our availability, hours and preferred locations. Overall it went quite well. Found out the next morning that I was not going to be considered for a one-to-one interview (the next stage).
Group interview where you had to role-play scenarios about working in the store. Hard to actually get a word in and it was online which made it even more difficult.
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.
