I'm sick of people already in the industry looking down on young pilots like me and saying we are what is wrong with the regionals. The regionals is what's wrong with the regionals.
They're not where you should be striving to be at. The majors is the end game and I believe that Mesa will be a great stepping stone to them. So stop arguing about which regional is worse and accept that it is a stepping stone to greater things.
I currently have interviews with XJT and RAH set. I am considering others as well. The decision about going to Mesa is not made yet, but the more I look at it the better it looks for myself and my career

What is?
I'll admit the phone hiring is a bit odd, but as is previously posted, you still have to pass training, which is in itself and extended interview process.
As for SJS, as a poor CFI working his A** off trying to get the ATP mins, what's wrong with me looking at a) job security b) relative health of the airline, and c) the opportunity for advancement, and deciding that Mesa is a great place to ditch the student pilots who can barely hold straight and level while on the ground and move into the 121 world?

Thanks for noticing my benevolence... Never intended to go to the airlines, but after 3rd corporate job sold airplanes out from under me, looked for the best possible one to go to, and that was definitely not the one run by J.O.

I can 100% guarantee you it wasn't because of the airplane he flew. Do you even realize how many guys out there have "glass jet" time? Your friend had some serious recs, did an internship, or was a girl.
