I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at ALDI (Waynesburg, PA)
Interview
After handing in a paper application, I went to the requested face-to-face meeting/interview with the regional manager -- then had to fill out ANOTHER paper application while I was there (I didn't bring any of the details I had written on my job application -- because I didn't think I would have to fill out another one at the interview) and wait in line.... for him to take the second application, ask me what hours I was available (which is ON the application BTW), never asked my name or told me his name, and then shuffled along to the next person. All in all, rude and arrogant.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ALDI (Saint Charles, MO) in Jan 2015
Interview
I attended the hiring event. There was a long line of people holding applications in their hands. You can complete it there but it's suggested that you bring a completed one with you. You stand in line, waiting your turn to hand your app and/or resume to one of the 5-6 interviewers. Once it's your turn, you will only talk to one of them. This process was just standing up, face to face. He/she will ask 3-4 questions. Then, they told me they would call within a week if they would like an interview. I asked what were they looking for in a candidate. His answer was vague and simple. He said they will base it on the interaction during that meeting there and look at the resumes. Also, I noticed that there were different piles where they would place the apps. He said in order to check on the status of your application you can visit any Aldi location. To me, it was a waste of time at the hiring event. I'd rather go directly to the store location to apply.
