Mesa FREE Pilot Interview Information and Gouge
Interview experience:
I Interviewed with Mesa Airlines today. The interview was held at the Holiday Inn Select in Phoenix. The day started at 8:30 when Lori Clark came in and introduced herself. She is a very friendly lady and tries to make everyone feel at home. After the brief introduction she gave us a 50 question test. All the questions are out of the ATP written. Areas included : 121, 91, holds, wind shear, weather charts, metar, TAF's, performance, Aerodunamics and Equipment. Basically just a few out of each chapter. No performance calculations. (If you study the atp written, you'll do well) After the test we had to introduce ourselfs to the other applicants and 12 line pilots. We were then given our interview times. The interview was great. I had a CRJ captain and a CRJ FO. Very nice guys, try to make you feel at home!!! They asked me to calculate my vdp. Scenario : you're at FL250 with a slight decompression problem. You need to descent to 12000ft. You are 60 miles SE of xyz VOR. GS is 240kt when will you start your descent and how long will it take. They asked me to brief an ILS app. What is a MEA, MOCA, FAF on a precision approach, FAF on a non prec., MSA, basically all possible symbology on an app plate. Know your runway markings, runway lights etc. Know 91.175 by heart. There were more scenario questions, but nothing out of the ordinary. They want to hear honest and correct answers, and are looking for people with great attitudes. Show them you want the job. We were 28 applicants. It takes approximately 10 days to find out if your'e hired. Mesa is a great company with many possibilities. GO FOR IT!!Click here to get the remaining 227 gouges on Mesa.
