It took me (non-TR, experienced) 3 weeks for a first invitation to their assessment after applying.
ATPL/company multiple choice test, Group exercise 50-80minutes, 2 interviews (1 personal and 1 technical) and a sim ride on A320 FFS.

good luck

Your're welcome.
Well nobody will call you, more likely you will be informed by mail. As the end of the world....ehm year is approaching I would expect some more time for an invitation - just a personal thought.

Hi everyone! Could somebody, who had the recent experience with the assessment process with Wizzair explain how it is done? What are the stages, what tests do they use (mathematical, psychometric, technical etc.). Thanks a lot!

Hi guys.As far as you know do you think a person with 3500 hrs jet but not current stands a chance to be called for an ntr assessment?
Thank you

Anybody was on the last assestment

Hi everyone,

Has anyone been to the assestment lately?
How long have they been calling you since you applied?
What did they ask on the assestment?
What bases are available now to enter as SFO?
How many sector do you do monthly?

Thank you very much.

Yes and they will most likely start to fly to USA in the future from that base. LTN will be the first western base in Wizz Air, more to come in the future im sure. The war on Ryanair has begun.

I've also heard they plan to open a base in Barcelona as their first long-haul operation to Thailand.

Wizz screening

Hi guys,
any info on latest screening experience/process and facts much appreciated. And I am kindly asking for latest facts and data, not rumors. I see other guys like me are interested also in making their mind up.
Thanks and regards to all.

Hi everyone,

Just read through the whole 18 pages.

A bit about me, I'm Australian and also hold a British passport (I really hope brexit hasn't completely crewed me). I have approximately 4200 TT, of which 2000 multi engine piston command, 500 turboprop command and 500 CRJ 200/700/900 FO.

I hold a current ATPL in Australia and FAA plus an EASA CPL/IR/ME.

I have previously lived in Poland and Czech Republic and have no issues moving to and living in whatever base I get. I have no interest in the West, more than happy to enjoy the East and it's lower living costs.

I'm currently working in USA on the CRJ and 6 months from upgrade. I realise though it's not really a great type and so very keen to come back to EU and start on the bus.

My questions are:

1. Is it only 500 in company for upgrade or is there a factorised minimum from within the company too? (Currently around 2400 factorised)

2. Currently I can pick up extra work on days off and block 100-110/month. How hard can I work there?

3. Is it 1500 or 2800 (or something else) factorised to get SFO pay?

Thank you for all serious comments and please feel free to add anything I may have missed

3500 factorized to start the upgrade, but can be reduced to 3000 as an absolute minimum, if your performance is good.

Expect to work 900 hours per year, i.e. the maximum you can legally fly.

1500 factorized to get SFO pay.
