Prove that you are a masochist and that you enjoy pain and dread... Seriously, avoid Mesa if you can - there are many better regionals out there. I am serious. Crop dusting would look a lot better on your resume.

Anyone taking a job at mesa these days, I hope you fail your ride and that haunts you for life..
Go in, have a pleasant attitude and tell them to stuff their job and you will get hired. That applies to all regionals these days.

There's a reason you're getting these type of responses. Mesa is an absolutely horrible regional to go to. Why on earth would you go to that place when nearly EVERYONE is hiring right now???
After being warned, and you still go, well...I hope you fail miserably at life.
Go somewhere else, and save yourself the pain.

You sound sincere. You really need to read up on Mesa - start on this forum and conduct a search. You will see a tremendous amount of justified negativity.
Personally, I agree with every comment on this thread you started. You really should avoid Mesa if possible. Terrible reputation, terrible work environment, one of the worst CEOs ever, dirt cheap pay, ratty airplanes - the list goes on. Why do this to yourself? There are better regionals out there...
I would highly recommend you politely turn down that interview. You would do yourself and your career a huge favor. I know there are a lot of hard working Mesa crews out there now, but the majority probably wish they were elsewhere. Look at Republic (nice E170s), Mesaba, COEX, Compass and others first. I would rather fly Beech 1900s for Great Lakes than fly for Mesa. Avoid Mesa at all costs.
Check out all of these other alternatives first (avoid GoJet too):

Good luck!

I am a 3.5 year F.O. at Mesa. I have everything that I am elligible to upgrade on already bid and I have for about a year now. No upgrade for me.
You wan't profesional advise. PM me your number. I will call you.
Steer well clear of this airline.
If you have a Commercial/Instrument/ME ratings with 250 hours, you're overqualified. Oh, and a pulse is optional.

Don't do this to yourself. Seriously. It will be on your background check for the next 10 years.
You might as well hang a "Scab" sign around your neck and walk around the airport.
Sell yourself out...bring down the industry....What a drama queen!
