As far as I know from very reliable information and someone who was there can confirm the following:

There were a lot of people, maybe over 200 approx. and just few Romanians, like 10 people max, 3 of them , pilot girls already with some hours and currently flying with a local operator.

The rest of people, from north europe, Scandinavian specially, Germany and Italians and some minor presence from Portugal, France and other nations.

Some people rated on A320, some with hours,others in other JAR25 aircraft, some other in turboprop and so on, and others just only aeroclub experience.

Most of the people doesn't met the requirements, like no JOC, or type rating expiring soon, some others with a ELP level 3, some other less than 200 hours on airplane and the list continue......

The guys who met the requirements left the Wizz application form and were signed by name and experience on their personal computers while others whose told to get the minimum requirements then to update their position contacting wizz staff and to specify that they were on the open days.

All people attending the open days have the priority over others at home trying to send they resume.
And of course there are some cadet entry pilot....already cabin crew in wizz as well.

They will principally looking for Romanian base as they will had Craiova base, but in the near future they will need huge pilot in all other bases.

Salary is funny but is the only reality here in Europe that gives you experience and TR with no advance cash...ROFL

They are going to answer to all the people either negative or positive, and who find himself selected, will attend a 2 day interview in Budaphest (1 day HR and technical interview and other day SIM profile)

Hope this help..
