UK- 1,500 people line up to try and get one of 40 jobs

[n2doc]

One and a half thousand job seekers queued for three hours or more in a desperate attempt to nab one of just 40 positions at supermarket giants Aldi.

The hopeful men and women joined the queue at 10am on Friday despite the interviews not starting until 1pm, forcing staff to start 20 minutes early.

Each candidate was given a mini-interview with management teams from branches of the supermarket before handing in their CV and contact details.

A teenager, who did not want to be named and joined the 1,500-person queue at noon at the Bridgnorth store in Shropshire, said: “I knew it started at 1pm so I wanted to get here early, but I didn’t expect there to be that many people."
