It's a supply and demand issue... not everyone, regardless of time in type and 121 experience is going to get the interview, let alone the job. I'm sorry your MEC mislead you in to believing there is a preferential hiring agreement for Comair pilots. Even if there was, that still doesn't guarantee you guys jobs. There are lots of Comair folks interviewing each week, but Comair isn't the only pipeline for Mesaba right now. Mesaba isn't going to hire you JUST because you come from Comair. I know it's awful to be in your shoes right now, but stop showing up to the interview like XJ owes you something and maybe more Comair pilots would be getting the nod.
I think people are referring to the apparent miscommunication that happened with the Mesaba MEC and HR dept regarding Comair pilots, as stated in some union emails we received. Of course to those who already interviewed, it will probably not make a difference, but when we get told something and it doesn't happen then yea some people will shout out. It isn't some sense of entitlement it's just added frustrations. And no I have not, (nor do I have the desire to), applied to Mesaba.
