I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Alsip, IL) in May 2017
Interview
Applied through in-person hiring event, which is just people coming in to fill out applications. I brought a resume and was dressed nicely. They called me back for an in-person first round interview, which was awkward with 2 other applicants with DM and DM Intern. They mostly walked through the resume and application to ask some clarification questions and laid out the expectations of Store Associates. Second interview was with Store Manager for location they wanted to place me at. Similar questions, but allows Store Manager to get a feel for you. Third interview was again with DM, DM Intern, and an Operations boss with more involved and situational questions. The process was lengthy and they only call you if you make it to the next round of interviews.
I was invited to a group interview where we walked around the store and toured the backroom where products are loaded and stocked. This was followed by an individual interview with the store manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you approach team building and teamwork? How would you handle a difficult situation? How do you define customer service? Where do you see yourself in five years? Is the customer always right?
Group interview, 26 people at the same store. 35 were invited to attend. Store tour and overview. Waited as they called us randomly for a quick 3-5 min interview. Took about 90 mins.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at ALDI (Bowling Green, OH) in Apr 2026
Interview
It was a basic one on one interview where the manager went over the basics of the job and I concurred I had experience in all of the shelve stocking and customer service aspects of the job from my time as a Produce clerk. It lasted about 10 minutes and then I was asked to leave.
