I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Cork) in Apr 2018
Interview
Aldi interviews are done in stages. The first stage was an online application which took a little over an hour for me to complete. The second stage was a group assessment. This was done by the area manager, there was supposed to be 7 of us but only 2 showed up. To start we introduced ourselves (name, previous occupation, in our case we're both students so we talked about our courses) after that was a short test where we calculated change and matched product names (similar to the online application). I believe we got 5 minutes to complete 10 questions, I skipped one of them ( there's 28 5c coins in your till, how much is that equal to?). After that test we were given a plane crash survival scenario where we had crashed in Canada and had 11 items we were to list from most to least important. This exercise is all about team work so make sure you're heard but that you listen just as well. After this we were asked if we had any questions, I asked about contact hours and how they work around students schedules. I'm now onto the third stage which is a one on one interview with the area manager, I believe I'm to bring a copy of my CV (Bring one to every interview just in case!!). If I get through this stage I believe the last one is to do a 2 hour trial run in a store with a store manager.

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
