and please... someone lock this thread before it gets out of hand

It's not an agreement but reduced hiring minima (not 600/100) for certain universities...Mesaba actually sends reps to schools and checks over their program and evaluates how well students would transition to Mesaba...sry if I misspoke...I've gone to career fairs at colleges for Mesaba...

No. Also not true. Mesaba goes to colleges to conduct interviews, not evaluate them. Its cheaper for them to fly 5 interviewers to the college than 20 candidates to Mesaba. If you look at the job description it actually says, and i quote:


The minimum preferred hours are 600 TT, 50 ME. Applicants having below the preferred hours are accepted with the approval of the company's chief pilot. Each case is reviewed on an individual basis.
