He began his acting career in 1986 with an episode of Tales from the Darkside. In 1987, he auditioned for a part on All My Children; however he did not get the part because he was not old enough. After his audition tape was sent to the producers of Ryan's Hope, he landed the role of Ben Shelby. He was working for Keebler Cookies at the time, in the warehouse loading trucks on the graveyard shift. Wlcek was nominated for Outstanding Male Newcomer Daytime for his role as Ben Shelby on Ryan's Hope in 1988.

During the time he spent on Ryan's Hope he acted in the play Liars by Elliot Meyers directed by Shellen Lubin at the Producers Club Theatre. Eight months later, he was cast as Linc Lafferty on As the World Turns. He stayed there for the next two years. A year after he left As the World Turns, he came out to Los Angeles and acted in several commercials. In 1997 he got the role of Trent Malloy in a two-hour Walker, Texas Ranger movie called Sons of Thunder. Jimmy's character evolved into a recurring role on the long-standing series, leading to his casting in the lead role for the 1999 spin-off series, Sons of Thunder. Despite achieving ratings higher than its predecessor, the series was discontinued after five episodes due to budgetary concerns from CBS.

His last name is pronounced "Will-Check"; the Slavic translation is "Little Wolf."
He is a highly trained martial arts expert, demonstrating his skill on episodes of Walker, Texas Ranger.
