I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (London, England)
Interview
Horrible process. Think twice before applying as it’s a waste of time. Over 1 month consisting of 5 interview stages just to get a generic email with no feedback at all. 1st stage is multiple choice questions online. 2nd stage is loads of questions including about why you want to work for Aldi. 3rd stage is a pre recorded video - competency questions- took half an hour. 4th stage is a group assessment which was 2 hours long! As well as a 5 minuet presentation which you have to present to the two recruiters and the group. 5th stage- final interview stage is an hour long where you are thoroughly questioned about your current role and why you want the job. Questions like give an example where you have shown integrity. An example of a negative comment and how you have dealt with it. Extremely corporate process and company. Was seriously doubting even wanting to work for Aldi after the Group Assessment.
After sending in your online application, if selected, a Recruiter will reach out via email to request a 15 - 30 minute phone interview. In this phone interview they will have you review your past experiences, including essential duties, accomplishments, and reason for leaving. They also asked questions to gauge how much I knew about the company and the role. If you get moved to the second round, you will be scheduled for a zoom interview.
LONG! I had a phone interview and then had to complete assessments. The assessments were Microsoft Word, Excel, a typing test, Math & Reasoning and a Reading Comprehension test. Honestly all of these test were ridiculous. Each were about 30 questions long. It was like I was taking the ACT again. Honestly for the amount they pay and the fact that benefits don't start until 90-days after employment, they shouldn't be able to require assessments that take up to 2 hours long.
