I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Lidl (Lincoln, England)
Interview
Fairly relaxed, 2 people present as is standard and we went through the usual motions of why I was suitable and why they are so great and cutting edge market leaders...etc...I would have liked more information about the job role, the training and a proper schedule of what would be required and when. Generic interviews are boring at the best of times and it would be nice to have a bit more flair. They weren't overly interested in previous achievements and we didn't go over my Cv at all.
Asked about availability as I was a university student, gave me a scenario of situations happening in store and asked how I would priority each one, asked what my favourite Lidl item was
I interviewed at Lidl (Newcastle upon Tyne, England)
Interview
Took 10 mins interview with a manager and a supervisor. Basic questions however really stressful but overall good experience not hard questions just very particular. Employees all seemed nice. Was told I’d receive a call within a week if I was accepted however didn’t receive one so
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl (Novi Sad) in Apr 2026
Interview
My experience with this company was very poor.
I initially applied for a position and was contacted by phone to confirm my interest. After that, an interview was scheduled, which I confirmed and attended as agreed.
However, after some time, I received an email stating that I did not attend the interview and that my application was considered withdrawn — which is simply not true, as I was present and completed the interview.
I reached out to clarify the situation and had to wait almost a week for them to investigate what should have been a simple mistake. When they finally responded, I was informed that I was not selected for a sales position in a city I never applied for.
They apologized and explained it was a system error — but at that point, there had already been two major system errors during my application process.
Overall, this was a very disappointing and unprofessional experience with a company that presents itself as organized and a desirable employer. Unfortunately, my experience showed the opposite.
