      Graduate Buying Programmer Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Lidl in Jan 2016

      Interview

      I applied online with my CV and cover letter. Just a few days after I got an email from an external agency which asked me to fix a date for an interview with them. The intent was to touch base and get to know me, so no competency-based questions. It started with questions if I had a driver's license and are eligible for working in UK. First I was asked to tell them about my education and work experience. Also, there were some questions about the company itself as well as the role and why I felt drawn to it and what I like about it and what made me apply. Be prepared for questions that relate to your degree: The interviewer might ask how it is related to the Programme or even think it is not related at all! Whole interview took 20 mins, got a decline on the same day, no feedback.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What do you like about Lidl? What made you apply for this role? After completion of the Grad Buying Programme you could transition to a role in X, Y or Z. Which one would you choose and why?
