If there are no offers then pilots complain.

I don't think it's a matter of complaining of being solicited, it's just a matter of validity. Though the three guys I know that received offers never applied for Mesa.

This is totally weird! Could anyone call Mesa to verify these offers are legit?

Why is this shocking to you people? They have to hire 300 pilots and have already been conducting the lowest form of screening, phone interviews, to desperately try and fill their classes. I'm more surprised that anyone here is surprised.

I have a friend who likes anabolic steroids. Think he can get hired there?

I've been trying since yesterday. I can't get anyone to call me back or answer the phone.

But I guarantee they had their apps on AirlineApps.

I'm not sure if desperate would be the current term. Sounds like there's lots of guys applying/calling and not hearing anything. Our classes are 100% shows.

I wouldn't go as far as using the word "lazy" as I have a lot of respect for the two guys doing ALL the recruiting and interviews. However that's lots of work for two guys, I see why they don't have every interested candidate positive spaced to PHX for a "dog and pony show" like a lot of the other regionals.

What do you really learn about a guy in a 15 minute interview? Other than they can be a chameleon during the two hour interview and company presentation.

Well I talked to the recruiting manager. She said she was "concerned" that no one had actually talked to me and that I didn't have a personal contact reference on my offer letter. She said the return email address was correct.

If this is legit, it seems we have a case of one hand not knowing what the other is doing - what a shock.

Although I did find it pretty strange that someone would get a job offer 6 months out without ANY personal contact first. I'm kind of new to all of this, but that seems a little careless.
