ALDI is hiring for its Lauderdale Lakes, Deerfield Beach, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs and Delray Beach stores.
For those hired, ALDI said store manager trainee positions pay $20 per hour, shift managers make between $10 and $13.50 per hour and cashiers will be paid $10.
There are a few requirements:

Typically discount grocery stores are smaller, have few brand names and shoppers have to bag their own groceries. And while they may not have fancy bakeries or deli counters, shoppers can find items like canned vegetables for under 50-cents.
ALDI is also able to keep prices low by selling private label brands meaning the brands are specific to those stores.
ALDI has more than 1,100 stores in 31 states.
