I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI in Mar 2016
Interview
Aldi came to my University's career fair where they hosted a Pre Night before the first interviews. At the Pre Night I felt as if they were trying to weed out the people who were only interviewing because of the Salary and Benefits offered. The first interview lasted about 45 min, and it was all behavioral questions. I was then asked to attend the second interviews at their warehouse location. We toured the warehouse, had interviews (which again were mostly behavioral), and then toured an Aldi store. In the car on the way to the store, I asked the District Manager if he enjoyed his job, and he promptly responded, "Not Really." This was very discouraging to me being a prospective District Manager. Everyone else I met was very nice, very outgoing, and very positive. But after he told me that he didn't enjoy his job, I immediately had doubts about the company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you think you would make a good District Manager?
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!
