Many companies have referral programs, and others are just generally curious if you know anyone who works for the company or at their specific ALDI store. Be honest with the interviewer and share whether you have friends or family employed by ALDI, and if so, what store location they work. Finally, if you answered yes to this question, tell the interviewer that these people enjoy working at ALDI and have only told you wonderful things about the company.

"My best friend works at this location and is the one who told me about the opening at Aldi and encouraged me to apply. He has always said this is a great company to start your career because leadership is so kind and willing to help you learn and grow."

"I don't currently know anyone that works for Aldi. I came across the job posting on Indeed and after researching the company, I felt like our core values really aligned, so I decided to apply for the position."

"No, I do not."

Try concluding your response with a remark on what you have read about Aldi from online employee reviews, for instance.

"I do not have any friends or relatives who work at Aldi; however, I have read some very positive online reviews from current employees!"

This is an honest and straightforward answer to the question. Nice job! I recommend adding the store location your sister-in-law worked at, and how long she worked at Aldi.
