I'm seriously laughing out loud at how all the Mesa haters have such a chip on their shoulder about how we do interviews.
WHY do you care so much whether this PRIVATE company chooses to wash people out BEFORE or AFTER their hire date. WHYYYYYY?!?!?!??!
I don't care what they do, but I will always be here to inform prospective new hires that this is, in fact, the tactic.
If Mesa were my company, I'd be asking several questions. Why is there an incentive to waste money and resources on candidates that have no right being there in the first place? Is this waste characteristic of other parts of their business plan? Does the company care so little for their people that they risk putting a black mark on your career forever as a ploy to attract as many applicants as possible? In what other ways is the company putting all the risk on my future career and my certificates that all the other cheerleaders are hiding?
My question here is, why do you all immediately come to the defense of Mesa? You are allowed to have a critical opinion and one that is not fed to you by recruiters and managers. It's healthy and might actually eventually lead to contract and QOL gains.
