I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at ALDI (Brandywine, MD) in Mar 2011
Interview
I went to an open hiring event at a hotel, where I was able to fill out an application and meet directly with the hiring district manager, who simply asked availability. Two hours later, I received a phone call from the same DM and scheduled an interview a week later. When I arrived at the interview, I was not only interviewed by that DM, but also the regional manager as well. They were thorough and upfront about the brand, what to expect, and the benefits of working at Aldi.
I applied online. I interviewed at ALDI (Metairie, LA) in Jun 2026
Interview
Initial interview is a group interview with 20 plus people. There is a tour of the store, and an explanation of expectations and company history. There is a short meeting with hiring management for screening for 2nd interview.
Group interview, 7am. Took a brief tour of the store, manager asked questions throughout. Speak up and answer questions during the tour. Then pulled into offices separately for 10-15 minute interviews.
Not difficult at all. There is a two step interview process where the first one you meet with the manager and the second you meet with the general district manager.
