I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Jefferson, GA)
Interview
The process went by pretty fast. Applied through college and was invited for the first interview which had to attend a dinner the day before. Went well standard with the type of questions ask about resume. Final interview went to office location along with other students. Overall, okay experience they wanted to learn more about me and goal and why aldi. Only bad thing is that I had the impression that they were looking for a certain type of individual out of the 12 that went 9 where white males.
I applied online. I interviewed at ALDI (Kansas City, KS) in Apr 2026
Interview
First round interview was s video interview with each question having a prerecorded question, then 30 seconds of prep time to answer the question with about 2 minutes of time. You sit at a device of your choosing and stare at yourself the entire time.
Communications started with 3rd party recruiter. Behavioral interview, asked about experience, leadership, communication abilities, weaknesses you have. Moved on to next round. In-person interview following this with Aldi executive. Similar format to initial interview, mainly behavioral, noticed a complete lack of organization.
Every question in 2nd round was a follow-up to the previous question. Having interviewed for many roles across many industries over the years, this interview was an interrogation, not a conversation. Experience led me to believe that Aldi, or this specific interviewer, struggles to see candidates for the District Manager role beyond 'assets'. Makes you wonder if corporate Aldi has a similar effect on other peoples souls. See for yourself!
