I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (Melbourne) in Dec 2014
Interview
I applied online through their site, surprised to receive an email to a group interview (completely forgot that I had applied).
We were all waiting outside the store, the people conducting the interview took us in 20 minutes later than the scheduled time. They took us into a back room within the store itself. There was about 10 of us, cramped around a small table with chairs with the two recruiters standing at the front. They were really nice and straightforward. We had to introduce our neighbour, then take any product in the store and introduce that. Afterwards at the very end there was a simple arithmetic test with 5 minutes to do it. I completed it under a minute and left.
I was called for a one-on-one interview the following week, it was with the two recruiters. They asked for my availability, background check and police check.
Surprisingly, the recruiter said I would start Monday as soon as the paperwork was finalised.
Then on Monday, I get an email saying I was unsuccessful, with no way to contact the recruiters (they used no-reply emails and private numbers) I was left disheartened and confused.

Interview
It was short and sweet, they sent me a email to book a time to have a phone call with them and a week later I had my interview. I just answered some questions they asked me and said I would get a email reply if I went to the next stage
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me
-tell them more about myself
-why I left my current position
-if I was working there what task would the job require
-why I want to work there
Was overly complicated and too many stages, online test x2 and a recorded interview. Application itself is very tedious and is not very friendly to new users. Apparently you need to know someone already in ALDI to work at there stores.

Call interview. Got an email to schedule a time for a call interview and passed it.
Still need to do a Store interview (which I was told would be the final interview).
