- Stage 3: Group exercise
- Stage 4: Personal interview
I wonder if anyone who have done the recruitment before could tell me what the PILOT APTITUDE TEST consist of? I read a lot of people talking about other types of test (mental arithmetic, ATPL knowledge test, stimulator assessment, etc) - not sure if those are included in the pilot aptitude test.
Another question I have and would appreciate an answer on is that I have been looking at difference test packages that you can buy to practice prior to recruitment event. The problem is there are so many, and I cannot tell which one to go for. According to WizzAir,
'
The beneficial feature of the Wizz Air approved pilot aptitude test (TestAir) is that candidates can make preparation for it. Its training module designed for four home practices before final supervised test at the recruitment event.'
How can I purchase TestAir prep course/training modules? Has anyone tried it before? Do you recommend it?
Thanks in advance!
The aptitude test consists of several tasks. I had 20 in total during my assessment, including spacial orientation, short-term memory, perceptiveness, math, physics, English, etc. ATPL questions and sim check doesn't apply for WAPA candidates only for direct entry F/O's, Cpt's and Cadet level candidates (those who got all licences, but no experience)
Keep in mind that preparation for TestAir that you get from Wizz consists only of 6 items from aptitude test and some of them are easier then actual test. You can check the website of TestAir360. I saw they are offering some preparation packages, but have now idea is it the same you would get from Wizz after passing the initial screening or something more.
