Serious talk.
Why gojet or Mesa?
Do you have DUI's, 3+ ck ride busts, 709's, bad credit, wrecked an airplane, a felony conviction, 121 training failure, or no college?
Just asking because everywhere is hiring right now.
Why would you shoot for the bottom of the barrel right off the bat?
CPZ, Horizon, Whisky, SKW are all trying to fill classes.

I'm new here so I'm not familiar with your past that has been alluded too.... PM me if you wish.
I'm not saying I'm shooting for the bottom of the barrel. I'm applying numerous places, but wanted to know if only Mesa and GoJet come a calling, which would be best?
Just because CPZ and SKW are hiring doesn't mean I'm a shoo-in. I have no DUI, but you're still not guaranteed anything.
PM me if you'd prefer, but if you didn't make it through IOE, is the training department deficient? Has that happened to others?

Reasons for Mesa:
The good.....growing, not reducing. Good training department, no check airmen that are bad. East coast base to soon to be West coast base. With the amount of upgrades, you'll be able to hold out West 6-9 months from starting. Laid back crews for the most part, but I'm in IAD, so the others could be different. Hiring for the emb175, which if you want to go overseas is a great type rating to have. I fly the CRJ700 most of the time, which I enjoy.
The bad.....low pay. Nickel and dime us on other stuff that should have no cost. Hotels are usually by the airport. Some are bad, others are great. Schedules have gotten better, but that might depend where you are based. IAD schedules have a decent amount of days off, not sure about the other bases, but I don't think they are as good. We have ready reserve, some others don't.
This help any?
