I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl
Interview
After a reading comprehension, maths and logic test, applicants have to do a video interview (film yourself answering to questions). This is very uncomfortable and inorganic. It put me off the company as I felt my time was not respected.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Lidl (London, England) in Feb 2021
Interview
In depth, online assessment. Prompt feedback but no consideration of the actual person. No personal contact was allowed, not even a phone call. For a managerial position I would always want to speak to the person first

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl in Jun 2021
Interview
Als erstes gab es einen Video Call mit dem HR Department. Danach musste man mehrere logische und analytische Tests - höheres Niveau - online erfüllen. Das Ganze ging mehrere Stunden. Dazu kam auch eine Videoaufnahme von sich selbst. Am Ende wurde man zum vor Ort Gespräch mit Fallstudie eingeladen.
