This is from the website you posted:
"Job Title: First Officer Positions--UND Grads ONLY "

I think it means they want their applicants to have a diploma. We got the same info here at UD as well. Masaba contacts lots of flight schools on job openings when they're in hiring mode!

Not that I want to go to Mesa (Ive got my sights on a better place) but why does it say UND grads only, wont they hire anyone with a pulse or 300/50, whichever comes first? Or is that a different airline?

You UND'ers can get off your high horse now - my school also sent out an email saying Mesaba is hiring with the same mins as posted on your internal job posting board.

Buh-Bye,

This must be the worst time for pro flight schools.

Why is Mesaba hiring right now? I thought they had to figure out if they were actually getting those 900's? did NWA finally decide, if so I guess all the furlough's are recalled then?

So here is the thing. The 900's are coming. A minor issue with the NWA MEC but that is being worked. 50 Furloughs are recalled. The next vacancy is expected in a couple of weeks which should recall the rest (that are coming back). Hiring will begin after that. Mesaba is actively recruiting and interviewing, but they are not "hiring" unless into a pool as of right now. The class with the furlough recalls will begin in April. I wouldn't expect new hire classes until end of May or June.
