Cadet registration

Hey ladies and gents!
I have received my first email about the cadet program registration link with WizzAir. Any documentation needed? I wouldn't want to access it, they ask for documents or CV and I'm not prepared. Would be a big bummer. Help, please !
thanks a million!

The program has changed the requirements, now they are accepting from all EU countries, this is from their website.
"You have unrestricted right to live, work and study in the European Union or in any Wizz Air base countries"

Oh great... When I was trying to apply, it was restricted to people holding Polish, Hungarian or Romanian citizenship only. 1.5 months after joining just a simple light school the Wizz academy is "open for everyone"

WAPA assessment

Have anybody gone through the assessment recently?
if yes, please respond to my email [email protected]
any help will be appreciated

hid3;

Thanks very much for your detailed post, very useful. I have interview on the 8th of December and I wasn't sure which apps to use to prepare. I'll give a shot to Skytest and LPJ, eventually.

Hey ladies and gents, is there any cabin crew/ex cabin crew applied for the programme and could tell us if the assessment is different at all, as they've already been in the aviation industry? Maybe technical questions? Higher expectations from the interviewers?

Hello everyone, does anyone know if you need a Hungarian Class 1 Medical to attend Trener and a Greek Class 1 Medical to attend Egnatia? Or can the Class 1 be from any country? Thanks!

Hi there,
You need a ‘Class 1 EASA Medical issued by your home country or country of the training provider’, it can be any country if it is EASA.

it’s unlikely for them to accept people from outside EU plus non-EU countries in which Wizz has bases

Yep, true. Because you must have full civil rights to freely live, work and travel accross EU without any restrictions. So basically this means you must be holding EU passport.

not exactly that way. They also accept people for example from Ukraine and Macedonia. So Wizz is aimed to hire those from not very rich countries as far as i understand

Hi! Does anyone knows some sites where I can train for my first math / phys. exams? Is the SkyTest® Preparation Software for Middle East Pilot Screenings good to train my math / phys. ?

Also, are they really trying to help you there, instead of letting you fail?

Thanks!

Skytest is a high recommendation, top 3 of the best ones, for WizzAir preparation, Middle East version does the job.

We all wish we knew if they actually try to help you during the assessments or not, and this we can only know from someone who's already been through the process and can give us some details.

with all the information i managed to gather from different sources i’ve made a conclusion that they don’t try to help nor make you fail, they just try to select those who fit their internal requirements and it’s simple as that.
BTW, is there anybody having their assessment in November?

I was not talking about the interview. I was trying to find out if during the 2+ years training they will help you and guide you, instead of letting you fail the exams. We all know that there are 2 different types of teachers, the type that is doing their best to fail you, and the one that always help you, and even if you are not that great, they give you a pass mark.

Hope that you understood what I was trying to say. Thanks!

There's a WhatsApp group opened for WizzAir applicants. If you wish to join drop me an email with your WhatsApp number at [email protected].

I think they have no interest to help anybody during the assessment, instead their interest is to choose the best ones, they will see whoever's suitable for the job, whoever has enough interest to study, enthusiasm, next to teamwork and cooperation. I trust they are experts on their field. Considering the huge amount of candidates, they have where to choose from and they will choose the best ones and I don't see why would they help anybody?
however, during the training the trainers will do their best to help the cadets, there is when their interest kicks in as they made a huge investment in the cadets and they will be the "teachers" who help and only then.

I can confirm no one will help you during the assessment (they won't try to make you fail either) - you simply need to do your best. During the training however you'll get loads of support if needed. Once you're in no one will be trying to stop your progress, after all ATOs will get full payment only if you complete the training so its not in their interest to make your life more difficult than it needs to be.
