Hi all,
I am considering the WizzAir Pilot Academy. I read that the recruitment consists of 2 days.
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! 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. |
Hey Luka,
Could you contact me as well regarding the material they sent you for the assessment? My knowledge is also quite rusty and I would like to try preparing in advance, cause I doubt 1 month would be enough. I am also not able to send you message here, because this is my first post. This is my contact +97450182641 Or [email protected] Hvala 😊 |
Hi guys I was just wondering how long it took for people to get a response after doing the online assessment on testair360? I did it about 3 weeks ago now and I haven't received an email nor does it say anything on the Wizz career website. I need a response cause idk whether to just start training solo now or wait for the response. Thanks Piotr.

How was the test, can you tell a bit about it and share you experience? Do you have a degree in science or not and how much did you actually prepare for this test? |
The test is long, took me about 4 hours in total to complete. You get two 20 minute breaks in between though. The test is harder than the practice tests you are provided with. One thing that threw me off was the mental arithmetic section, since the questions were given audibly, not in text, which made it quite hard (for me at least). I do not have a degree in science, just high school maths and physics knowledge. From what I can remember the physics questions had suvat equations, specific heat capacity, moments, etc. You are allowed a calculator and paper for the maths and physics sections. Mathematics mainly involved basic trigonometry knowledge, algebra (the most complex thing I remember seeing was that you had to rearrange a trig equation and you had to know sin/cos = tan). The rest was fine. The English test was easy for me since I speak it almost natively, however it's not too bad, you just have to be good at English grammar. Hope this helps!

New slots
Hy guys, does anyone has any idea when new slots are going to be available for the online test? I have been invited to book my slot one month ago…checking every day but it always said 0 slots available.
|
Do they allow you to book your time? I read here in this thread that after you pay the testair360 fee you are given a specific date. Or they give you 30 days to sign up for a specific time or maybe you have 30 days to take it?
|
Thanks for sharing! How big and complex were the calculations in mental math? Could you please give few examples?

As I know, you should be able to start the training within 1 year. The test is not easy, it consists of 13 different modules, such as match, physics, English, Mental Arithmetic, hand-eye coordination etc. I bought a program on SkyTest (platform specialized for all kinds of pilot aptitude tests) and also on TheLatestPiltosJobs, but from my experience the SkyTest is a better option. I had 15 maths and 15 physics questions, starting with easier ones and ending with the more difficult ones. To be honest, the last few questions are not easy at all, but I believe that scripts that WizzAir has sent you are enough. Although the great majority of physics questions are solving problems, you should also focus on theory. All in all, the exam requires preparation, and the ability to quickly adapt and understand exercises you have never seen before, not even on Prep Exams as the modules are not the same.
Also greetings from a neighbor in Macedonia :) |

I submitted my application on 22 sept 2023 and got the message "you have not been selected" three days later on 25 sept 2023. Which I find quite unusual because I meet all the requirements, have aeronautical degree, have aircraft engineer experience and am glider pilot.
Any one else who submitted recently who got accepted or have not been selected? Cheers |
Hi everyone!
I have my test scheduled end of October and after doing one of the practice tests on test360, I feel lost 😂 Is there a telegram group or any type of group that I can join or be added, to get more information from people that have done the new online test? |

Hi everyone
I applied yesterday and today I received an email that I have been pre-selected, I was informed of the test that I have to take. Anyone knows or has any study material for the test? Thank you all in advance.

At the beginning I thought it's a bug and I waited for the confirmation mail that my application was received but was not the case. Now I think I am rejected but I don't know way.... |
