Consisted of an assessment center in their office in Mitchelstown. C.V review task where participants are given 4 C.V that all have pros & cons and the group must come to a consensus on who would be the best fit for Aldi. A fifth is then added to test if you are willing to change or not. Psychometric testing - standard maths equations and verbal reasoning under time constraints Brief introduction of something that interests you where you stand for a minute talking about either yourself or something that interests you. It is made crystal clear in the interview that a) You will be expected to work hours in excess of 60 hours. b) If you do not reach targets in whatever shop you are placed in that you will be replaced and c) The director structure is relatively flat i.e if you are thinking of progressing from an area manager to a director you have little to no chance in achieving that goal. Personally if you have a business or technical degree look elsewhere for work, area manager is not going to hold much weight for your prospects in moving into another job down the line.
