4-6-05 Mesaba Interviews

[pilotshan]

I had my resume walked in and it took them a while to call. After multiple calls by the chief pilot, I finally had an interview date. For those of you with low time, I know a guy that just interviewed with less than 1000TT and about 100ME. He just faxed his resume in. No walk-in or LORs. He hasn't graduated yet either... So those with not a lot of time, don't despair, your call could come very soon. Like others have said, HR is very busy with all the hiring and it could take a little time.

Its been a while since I went through the process, but one thing they require is a certain amount of flying in the past 90 days (I think 100-150 hrs). If you get the interview and don't get a call right away, hang in there. They typically call the rejected ones withing a few days, not getting a call isn't all bad.

Wow Towelie I wish I would have known that last weekend as I jumped everytime my phone rang. Thanks for the good info. Does anybody have any thoughts about whether I should go with XJ if I get hired or take this SR-22 gig for a company in my home town. Comparable pay, benefits, obviously sweet airplane, home nearly every night. Any thoughts?

 

[ClippedWings]

Has anyone heard the good news as of today (monday)?

 

[5ontheglide]

Nope.

Hey T we have SR22's at our flight school. They aren't that special. I would take XJ but thats just my 2 cents.
