I’m not bashing you; most pilots would just go back to 135 or 91 until their “top-tier” airline recalled them.
I have been looking for jobs in 135 and 91, there are none available. They are ready to furlough also. Many will also require a contract.

I don't think anyone will have a difficult time explaining a furlough at a job interview. It is so common now that 99.9% of the people interviewing will be in that situation.

I am very skeptical what Mesa is up to. If they are so desperate for pilots, why is their job fair in August and interview dates in August. They should be next week. Also, they had a huge pool prior to 2 weeks ago. I am sure they have filled up classes in August but you would think they would want to fill up September as fast as possible.

Good luck to anyone that feels they need apply to their last choice airline in order to pay their bills. We have all been humbled and no one is safe.
