I got hired at Piedmont, and leave for training tommorow. I looked into Wizzair as well, and it seems they recently have slowed their hiring a bit. Last year I remember on their website it said for F.Os they wanted 1500TT and 300TT if you are from Eastern European origin. But now it seems that the positions filled up, at least for now. As airframes continue to roll in, they will probably continue to hire. I guess by 2012 they are supposed to have something like another 62 A320s? Havent looked into Norwegian too much, but heard they are trying to open a base in PL? Centralwings is hiring as well I heard. Anything based out of Krakow I would love.
Is the ATP a requirement to waive the required ground school? Or do you just need the 1500hrs?
Also, I'm not sure of your age and time you spent in Poland. But what about the Military, have you served the required time? If not, how are you planning on going about it?
Hej!
As far I read it looks like you need and ATP license, but that is relatively easy to get if you meet the mins. The only reason why I got my ATP is because of the JAA conversion. I am 26, so I still have two years left till I am exempt from military duty. But I figured that by the time I move there I will be 27 and then I will just keep my USA address for a year. I do know people that can get me out of it if worse comes to worse.
