Alright guys.....
Just a quick question... How many hours did you guys have when Wizz took you on and how do you find them to work for? Im a newby low hour guy (one of many, I know!) but I do fancy working for them at some point if the chance ever comes up but not sure whether they ever take on guys with less than 500 hours TT???
Cheers

Hey i am a fatpl cpl/ir-me and i very intersted in wizzair but i don't have a type rating on the 320. After looking on there website there is only positions for type rated guy's with hours on type. So where do low timers have to send their application to if you say that they hire without TR. thx

But the company is expanding (new A320 to be delivered) and they should need fresh pilots in the next months/years. On Wizzair website, you can find offer for type rated pilots without any hour on type requirements (only for sofia base).
It should be low hour pilots that have been hired recently.

Yes, but it is not excluded that these pilots on file, have just been type rated A320 (with low hour).
Perhaps, low hour pilots should have few positive points :
- lower salary
- low turnover due 3 years contract (3 years bond)
- and maybe less critics with captains due to lack of experience
- hard worker (want to unfreeze ATPL quickly / to become captain in few years)
- no or few family life

To set things straight. At present there are guys doing line training with min Hrs ( 300 TT ), but these guys have been in the holding pool for at least a year. As for new guys, there are a lot of applicats and the company can now choose between who they will take.
The interview is quite straight forward, some IF questions and some tech Q's from your previous aircraft.

I heard that the next interview will be organized at April. They required MCC course on A320 (if you don't have a type rating) and to pay 15.000 Euro. You can see the details in the homepage.
