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 rota for your first week, and they will also tell you who your Training Mentor will be. This is a person within the store who will guide you through your training plan to make your first few months at Lidl go smoothly.
