I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Lancaster, OH) in May 2019
Interview
It wasn't a real interview. The e-mail described it as an "open house interview," but really it was me and a handful of other people showing up, we did a brief tour of the facility, the manager asked each person exactly one question (Why do you want to work for Aldi?) then it was over. It really felt like the interviewer was trying to get through things as fast as possible. And as our group was walking out there were another five people waiting outside for their "interview."
I was really disappointed. I don't think I've ever attended such a lackluster interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work for Aldi? (literally, that was the only question)
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
