I applied online. I interviewed at ALDI (Tamworth) in Sep 2017
Interview
Group interview of about 10-12 people, We met with the area manager, Surprisingly was a pretty great guy. He walked us around the store telling us why Aldi is different and ask questions relating to different sections of the store. This was probably the least nerve racking group interview i have been to so far. No group games and no speeches about yourself, which was a sigh of relief. Some of the people didn't dress the part so i highly suggest smart attire (Dress shirt, Dress Pants and a nice pair of shiny shoes) please don't check your phone or come in trackies and thongs and some did. MAKE SURE to make a point of yourself. Ask questions and get yourself remembered. If you don't ask question then you didn't stand out. Always Greet and Say Goodbye. Won't be receiving update about 2nd interview for 3 days.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI in Mar 2017
Interview
Had group interview first along with 15 others, it was quite laid back, the manager talked about and stressed how physical the work is, also how you would learn every facet of the job from cleaning to merchandising. We then had to get to know the person next to us and explain why they would be good for the job. Also had to say what you could offer to the job. Then out of the 15 roughly four people are chosen to move on to the next level, where you have to fill out a form with details and some general calculations as the registers do not show the amount of change. Received a call a week later asking to goad get a medical check and then called into store where we met the general manager, it was not an interview even though we were told it was, I think it was more about seeing if you were a suitable fit with the rest of the staff.
