Reposting for the Mesa lurkers. I'm unlocking my private messaging if anyone has questions about Mesa.
It's not. Go to the training center. Talk to the FOs. They're no different than any other regional. I've met some awesome pilots with pretty amazing experiences at Mesa. The successful ones will rise to top, become captains and move on. Others will fill the right seat for a while and get left behind. It's how airlines work.
My class and those before/after had hires sent home for sim failures, logbook problems, background issues - the normal stuff. New hires have even been sent home after a poor AQP performance. Mesa, like any other 121 airline operating in the US, has to be safety focused. Everything rides on this. The FAA monitors, crews, training, pilot records, etc. The second things get dangerous, it's over.
If anyone out there is thinking about coming to Mesa, consider whether you're willing to accept the pay. Ask a Mesa pilot about the contract, schedules, morale, crews. They'll tell you the truth. While you're at it, also ask them about the stuff you read here in APC bizarro world. You'll probably get a blank stare. Never, outside of this forum, have I had a discussion with another Mesa pilot about the claims made by trolls on this site. Do some pilots have shoddy backgrounds? Probably. This is the regionals; there are some second-rate folks out there. But to dwell on the laser focus this site brings to the questionable 1% is a waste of energy.

If the mods ban him he'll just come back under another name (cough.. spuzzyair). At least this way we know who he is. They're operating on the premise that if you repeat something enough times it becomes accepted as truth because they know nobody is going to expend the energy refuting every lie and half truth. Like a politician with talking points they'll just keep repeating the same thing it doesn't matter if it's true or not just keep saying it.

No he's just getting excited because he has like 3 or 4 busts and thinks Mesa will hire him whereas nobody else will.

I used 3 as a hypothetical. I also have a 30 thousand hour american arlines pilot teaching me instruments. I would say i have a chance if i work hard and am willing to learn. Do you know people with 2 busts that have been hired at regionals?

Interesting fact:if you say something true but not positive on a Mesa thread, the Beliebers here will consider you a hater and try to get you banned. Usually they same the same thing over and over again while ignoring anything you say.
