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.

Thanks a lot for your answer. I have one more question. How do they select the base for their pilots, after they finish the pilot training?

What about the 300h requirement, no chance to apply without them including roadshows ?

They blindfold one of their employees, stand them in front of the map and they're asked to keep throwing darts until they hit a country with Wizz base in it.
It is a bit of the lottery really, especially the first one. You get a selection of what's available but again, you're more likely to see Chisinau than Budapest. When you're in your first base you can apply for your desired one and join the queue. Apparently its not too long in most cases.

Assuming Polish CAA won't mess up again, I should within 3 weeks.

Thanks again for your answer. I really hope that after I will finish the training, I’ll be assigned either in Moldova (Chișinău) or Romania.

Hi there, could anyone who has attended the 3-day recruitment event tell me if there's a dress code please? Thanks!

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?

Yeah, me on 9th of November and you?

Hi! Is it true that most of the Wizz Air Pilot Academy interview questions (math. / phys. ) are from the SkyTest software? Also, how hard were the question from this 2 topics (Easy / Medium / Hard) ?

Thanks! Feel free to PM me, or reply to the topic.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how long it takes to answer the form sent from the web? I applied 5 days ago and I still haven't received a negative nor positive response

Thanks :)

This is really strange. I applied as a mistake, and still got invited to an interview (the application is frozen right now, since I told them that I will come to the interview when I’ll be ready). But, as an idea, if you apply to both of the schools, you will get a bigger chance to get invited to an interview. If you applied only for one school, you may need to wait more.

Hi Dan, how long did it take them to give you an answer since you applied on the web?

Thank you for answering me :D

Some people took even longer than that, so don't you worry for now.
