Very much enjoyed aspects of the placement year. If you really make a point to get on with everyone in store it can be an enjoyable experience. During time at head office you will also be with other placement students which make the experience more f...
I thoroughly enjoyed my placement year with Aldi. The job role is advertised as one that is full of responsibility and one which you will develop massively. I can honestly say that this is a true reflection of my year, and I know that the skills that I ha...
Great - tonnes of responsibility that you wouldn't get on another placement year.
I really enjoyed my time at ALDI. From store time to head office time I met a lot of really pleasant people who made the whole experience very enjoyable. The work was always engaging and the sense of reward after completing a tough task made the whole exp...
The placement is very diverse, I had the opportunity to rotate across all departments in the company and thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it.
The star rating system for this question ranks 1 as "A Struggle" and 10 as the "Best Job Ever". The Aldi scheme has without a doubt been the most challenging experience of my life but it is this challenge, and overcoming said challenges which make it rew...
Aldi is incredibly challenging but also very rewarding. If you are expecting to love every single day and never have really difficult moment then Aldi is probably not the placement for you. However, if you like a challenge and are motivated by difficulty ...
The Aldi industrial placement scheme is a lot of hard work, however you get such a large amount of responsibility that it's worth all the hard work. You get enough time in stores to be able to see a change from your work and it's a great feeling knowing t...
Great level of responsibility and challenging experience to push yourself. Will benefit those who take ownership of their learning and are pro-active with their development.
Store time was horrendous you get worked extremely hard and people expect too much from you too early on in your training. It is fair to say I felt like dropping out on numerous days due to not being treated fairly and people being horrible to me. Head Of...
Hard work and definitely some stressful days but that amount of responsibility your are given is phenomenal. To go from a university student to a store manager in the space of a few months is an extremely steep learning curve and I definitely wouldn’t hav...
It's a roller coaster. The most stressful thing you'll ever do, and the most rewarding at the same time. It's tough, but if you can make it through the hard times, there's plenty of amazing times.
The placement year is a tough challenge. Aldi are a fantastic employer to work for, but in return expect hard work and commitment. I enjoyed the variety of experience throughout the year, from working in stores to shadowing area managers to project work. ...
Throughout my placement year with Aldi, I have seemed to experience extreme highs and extreme lows. The type of work massively varies through the year, from running an entire store and working in the retail environment, to completing data analysis and ma...
The placement was very varied in terms of the work I was doing. For the most part, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Aldi as it challenged me on a daily basis. There were times where the work load and expectations were high, but in the long term this has ...
I really enjoyed my placement year given the experience and exposure I received. Whilst it was hard work I would recommend it to anyone that's committed and keen to develop in a professional environment. I enjoyed the responsibility I received and the dif...
I thoroughly enjoyed the placement. It was challenging but extremely rewarding.
Working at Aldi has instilled in me many proficiencies and habits which will surely put me in good stead at any endeavour that I pursue. This is from the constant pressures and high standards that you face on a daily basis, along with the scrutinisation o...
Although the workload is very full on, the job satifaction you get out of it is huge!
I really enjoyed my time with Aldi, while it's no secret that it's a challenging environment to work in, if you put in the work and effort there can be some great rewards at the end and throughout. Likewise the variety of tasks you get involved with only ...
