I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Cork) in Aug 2020
Interview
Aldi's online application is more comprehensive than the higher level leaving cert English exams. I feel like it takes ages to hear anything from them, but you get entered into a candidate pool and emailed to interview eventually. I got a call from a girl in Wilton who called me by the wrong name initially, sounded totally disinterested and spoke far too quickly and quietly to be understood. The phone interview was scheduled to be a total of 10 minutes long which seems a bit rude? considering the amount of effort candidates put in to the online application. I could tell from her tone on the call that I was not going to be successful. Standard email the next day saying I wouldn't be progressing. Disappointing really. I would have liked to work for Aldi.
Interview questions [1]

Asked about teamwork and how I prepared myself for the last job I had.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Brighton, England) in Aug 2020
Interview
I was contacted after a successful video interview to come in for an "Individual Assessment" with the store manager. This was a 1/1 interview. It took around 10 minutes.
It was friendly and fairly relaxed.
After the manager had told me about herself I was asked to tell her about myself, including hobbies and interests.
I was then asked multiple questions and then given a piece of paper where I had to read a possible work senario and say how I would handle the situation.
I was then told I'd hear back within 5 days. I was sadly rejected by email.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at ALDI (Newcastle upon Tyne, England) in May 2020
Interview
overall interview process took 3 months, consisting of online questions, video interview and telephone interview. The telephone interviewer was seemingly wanting me to fail and wasn't very pleasant to talk to.
