      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl (Arlington, VA) in Apr 2019

      Interview

      They were 30 min late. They Ask you to come at 8 AM but it's OK for them to show up at 8:30 AM. Also the interviewer Priya M. have been on the job for only two weeks at the time of the interview. Alex Imm. gave a nice presentation bragging about the company, not mentioning the screw ups the company been through in Europe (this information can be found on Wikipedia). They focus on muscles and young age they keep repeating this job requires a lot of lifting So they're looking for the young and the strong. The group interview lasted five hours they only offered water. interview is conducted as two on one . the applicant will be interviewed by an HR talent acquisition person as well as a district manager. The interview itself is very easy however they are looking for something that they're not telling you and I suspect age. from what I've seen they are looking for applicants in their 30s or late 20s it's a European mentality.
