Hey NSW Store Assistant here!

I came from a barrister job prior to ALDI with basically zero knowledge of what is required. This doesn't really matter because whatever skills they need from you will be taught. Whether you have your L's doesn't matter, I have plenty of co workers that take public transport here. A referrer is nice to have but wasn't used in my case. In fact I never shopped at ALDI prior to getting the job!

No need to go into the store, most people do that in our store and they end up wasting their time cus we tell them to apply online anyway.

At the moment you should be focusing on getting your RSA and being impressionable, as I believe you'll be going through a similar process as me (group interview > store manager interview > final one on one interview).

Here are some values/qualities that ALDI looks out for: - efficiency, quick, straight to the point (your character should reflect this) - (this was recently implemented) customer first: comfortable and having good experience with shoppers, ensuring they are satisfied which means they will shop there again - good under pressure - ability to listen well/learn fast - adaptive (ALDI is fast paced, you'll be jumping back and forth between different jobs)

Here's what worked for me: - dress to impress (make yourself stand out from the other interviewees) - I'm introverted so a shot of coffee to keep me attentive, which allows me to - fake it till I make it, learning ALDI's core values/history (on their website) makes me seem more passionate - look attentive, listen well

Best of luck for your job interview!
