I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Portlethen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland) in Jan 2023
Interview
I was invited to a 1 on 1 interview. Area manager was very nice and basically told me I had the job. She processed my application right there in front of me and everything. She was so pleased that she got the floor manager to do store experience with me at the same time. Usually you are sent away and about a week or less later invited back to do it if you pass the 1 on 1. We talked shift hours, holidays, when I was able to start etc. I was told to keep an eye on my emails over the next few days as I would be contacted. Cut to 2 WEEKS LATER I got an automated email from "recruitment team" saying I was unsuccessful and couldn't tell me why. I researched other people's experiences and so many were similar. Wish I had researched beforehand. They completely waste your time, only good for what they offer pay wise.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Why did you leave your previous job and want to work at aldi?
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.
I was first givwn the opportunity to join a group assessment, which I passed. I was then asked to attend a face-to-face interview, in-store but the manager did not come into work that day and I was asked to rearrange the interview after waiting for over an hour. Another applicant also turned uo and waited 30 minutes after I arrived
It is an online interview section where you are asked a question then you record and send. Best you use an iPhone you can several times and send the best
