Question 1
Come reagirei di fronte ad una problematica specifica che si verifica in store
Formal laid back to the point quite easy over all very generic basic questions that you would get in any other interview. Wouldn’t recommend place to work very poor structure no support by your line manager
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl (Birmingham, England)
Interview
Difficult and challenging. Corporate. You will be asked lots of questions and those things you will never do. The interviewers seemed arrogant. Great pay but they will work you to the bone.
