The assessors are very friendly.
starts with an icebreaker- describing yourself, your university degree, talk about your hobbies and then you have to say your favourite Aldi product and why.
Then you get given a topic it could be pricing, special buys , branding etc and you have 10 mins to prepare and then 3 mins to present back and after wards they will ask a question based on something you have said.
Then there is an individual exercise that leads into a group exercise. You get given a brief- in my interview it was 4 different training programme options and you have to select 1. This is very rushed! you just need to pick out the key info. Then you have one min to present why you picked that option
then you have 20 mins as a group to all decide which programme you are going to go for and then have 2 mins to present your final conclusion.
The assessor will disagree with your option and try and persuade you to change your mind.

Question 1
Introduce yourself Speak about Aldi's social media presence Does Aldi appeal to upper class customers?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ALDI (London, England) in Oct 2023
Interview
Overly lengthy application process. They are looking for a very particular individual regardless of technical experience or capability. If you have a group of people that are not particularly capable, It is almost impossible to do the group exercise properly without coming across as overbearing.
