I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Lidl (Columbus, OH) in Dec 2015
Interview
I have had 4 interview rounds (2 rounds with HR manager and 2 rounds with finance department).
Questions are not difficult, mainly normal conversation. For example: tell me about yourself, your weakness, your strengths, why do you want to work for Lidl.
Received offer 10 minutes after interviewing.
Very quick process.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lidl (Arlington, VA) in Nov 2019
Interview
This process is pretty similar to the standard with most companies. First there was a phone screening with HR. The following day I was asked to do a Skype interview with your potential upper level manager. About a week later, I was asked to come down to HQ for a final interview with the direct manager and another team member. As for the questions asked, most were very standard interview questions with behavioral questions asked as well. For this particular role, I also was asked to complete an Excel test to check my knowledge working with data and manipulating it similar to what may be expected of you. Also, if you are a German speaker and applied for a role that requires the language be ready to communicate in German during your interviews to test your fluency. Overall, this was a very smooth process.

Interview
Phone interview, Skype interview, in person interview w/ excel test and case study presentation. After all of this time I dedicated to the process, Lidl didn't even bother to follow up with me and let me know if I got the job or not. My emails were ignored and it was as if none of it ever happened. Very disrespectful and unprofessional.
