I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at ALDI (Northampton, England) in Jul 2025
Interview
Very chilled interview, mainly speaking about my availability and how physical and fast-paced the work would be. We spoke about my CV, and out of the 20 questions I had prepared, he only asked me 2 of them. I was only there for 15 minutes. Got through to the next stage, the store experience day, I was shown around the store and warehouse, we spoke about what the job would involve, with the emphasis on how physically challenging the work would be.
Got an email, I was unsuccessful two days later, just a generic one saying 'due to high volume of applicants, we're unable to give personal feedback'
After four stages, I think feedback is deserved, and I was disappointed with 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
