Before you join
What to expect before you join us
Your first day is near, we hope you’re excited! Before you get started, here are the steps you can expect to go through in preparation for the big day.
Congratulations! You have been offered a role with Lidl
Your new line manager, or a member of the Recruitment Team, will have been in contact with you to let you know about the offer and a start date will have been agreed.
Your contract
Next, you will read and sign your digital contract. Your recruiter will be available to answer any questions you have about the contract.
Learning about Lidl
After this, you should expect an email which includes the details for your first day at Lidl. Your first day will be a welcome event where you learn more information about life at Lidl and what your first few weeks will look like. This welcome event will take place in your new store.
Call with your new line manager
Your line manager will give you a Welcome Call before you join Lidl. This is a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you have so that you have everything you need for your new career at Lidl. On this call your line manager will make sure you know your roster for your first week, and they will also tell you who your buddy will be. This is a person within the store who will guide you through your onboarding plan to make your first few months at Lidl go smoothly.
Store training videos
A number of training videos need to be completed before your start date. The links to these trainings can be found in your Induction Letter which is attached to your offer email. On your first day you will complete an assessment of the modules to confirm that you have completed your online induction.
You're now set for your first day
This is it! Your first day in your new store. We are excited to welcome you to the team! Your DSM mentor will be on hand to guide you through your e-learning and practical training, you'll be an expert in no time!
