I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Batavia, IL) in Aug 2016
Interview
First round is a phone interview. Second and third rounds are in person with mangers and directors. Very in depth and thorough interview process. Many consumer behavioral questions as well as situational questions. Be ready to have questions to ask as well. Very professional but comfortable environment. They are a lean company and don't offer title growth but do offer growth in position responsibilities. German based company so I had the advantage of knowing how that office environment is. Strict and conservative.
