Hi, last wednesday (01/12/2010) I got a phone call from a gentleman from Wizzair, he asked me a few question about my career and flight hours and about Wizzair.
Anyone else here got a phone call or email?

Cheers!!

Hi!
I have one question regarding the application process:

Quote:

If you are interested in joining the dynamic team of Wizz Air, please fill out our application form, and attach our pilot datasheet. Please be advised, that we accept only the pilot datasheet as attachment!

Any application received which does not have the correct attachment will not be considered.

Does this mean that you only are allowed to attach the datasheet and nothing else e.g license copies, cv's etc OR does it mean that the only acceptable way to send the datasheet is by attaching it to the application?

Thankful for help.

I think you attach ONLY the data sheet to the application.

Why do they want to look at your licence? Or your picture? Or anything else for that matter?

The data sheet gives the recruitment team the information they need.

Somebody knows something about the interview process? how they do what usually they ask? any suggestion will be appreciate..:ok:

I just got an email from
Wizz stating the following:

Dear Applicant

If you are having difficulty in updating your online application please perform the following steps

1. a) Access you application through the Wizzair Website

http://book.wizzair.com/career/pilots/?page=4

1. b) or use this APPLICATION FORM link

http://tbe.taleo.net/NA6/ats/careers/requisition.jsp?org=WIZZAIR&cws=1&rid=144

Under Previous Applicants:

2. Type in your email address
3. Type in your password

4. Click on "Add to my Jobs"

5. Click on "Edit Application" on the top of the page

6. Comply with the instructions and carefully complete the required fields, ensure that you have factorised your hours correctly before selecting the apppropriate Pilot Experience and ensure that the Pilot Datasheet is attached. Our policy is to permanently exclude any applicant who overstates or understates his experience by selecting the incorrect Pilot experience.

I applied to wizz in the first week of December so im guessing alot of people are having trouble working out which category they are in.

I find the factoring hours thing a bit of a joke to be honest it just degrades you even more. Im currently a first officer at a different company but I fall under the cadet category when appling for Wizz.
1000 factored hours is about 1300 total time at 0.8, im not sure if wizz are doing this as a buffer.

Can someone please explain the reason why? Or is it obvious but im still a little wet behind the ears!

anyone got invited?

Hi everyone!

And all the best wishes for 2011. :ok:

In other train of ideas, I'd like to find out if someone in "Non TR Cpts., Senior FOs and FOs (Wizz Air Sponsored)" was called and / or invited to interview. Considering the specification regarding the end of December 2010, we might conclude that this was all about the great Wizz hiring session... So be it?! :confused:

My wizzair status were change today to "Available".
Someone else with that status???

@Biggles77: "Available" Status

And your previous status was?

My status is "Apprroved for Review" and it's unchanged since I filled up the new online application form - about 2 weeks ago, when I received that email quoted here by punk666.

my previous status was " on file"

:confused:
So... they changed your status without any communication, reason and so on?
Strange...

yes they did.... I dont know why.... i hope they will contact me :-)

my status hasnt changed :ugh:

What is your exp. Punk666???

Hi Everyone,

What kind of IFR and Aerodinamics questions will be asked on the phone interview?

thx

Hi gays. Any info on interview process?

RGDS

hey punk666, why on earth are you applying for a self funded 320 rating with wizz, you just paid big bucks for a 73 rating and linetraining.
Allready sick of living on the planet of the apes (indonesia)? LOL

Hi z-e-d!

On the phone interview you should expect some question about yourself and your flying experience (mostly multi engine hours) and HR questions for example:
What can you bring to this company?
How did you get started in Aviation?
What goal's do you have?
What is your greatest accomplishment?
What makes a great pilot?

Regards,
UW
