I applied last Thursday, got an email inviting me to complete a one-way video interview. I thought that I had five days from the moment I received the email but turns out it was five days from clicking the link in the email. It said it would take about 15 minutes to complete the interview but it took me longer just because I kept redoing my video answers. Only 5 questions with unlimited time to think about your answer and retake your video. You have 1 minute to answer the question. Really easy even if you're nervous like I was. Now it's time to play the waiting game to see if I moved on to the next round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Tell me about yourself
2) Who is your role model (other than your parents) and why?
3) What inspired you to apply for the flight attendant position at Mesa?
4) What is professionalism and customer service to you?
5) What makes you a qualified candidate for this position and what can you bring to the company?
Super easy! Did a video interview that was about 4 questions, mostly about you and customer service questions. Had an online interview with recruiters and waited about a week for a phone call.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mesa Air in Apr 2025
Interview
Online process where you record videos of yourself answering questions and you have unlimited time to think of an answer and unlimited takes. But you do only have one minute to answer. Questions are pretty easy if you put some thought into them. About a month later I was invited to a group interview session via zoom as well as a one-on-one interview.

Question 1
Tell us a little bit about yourself, who is your role model other than a parent, talk about a time with a difficult situation with a coworker, what does hospitality mean to you.
Very easy process. Honestly, it was such a pleasant Interview process. Fairly quick to move forward or to know you were not accepted. The recruiters were open minded and enjoyable to talk to. None of them were so intimidating that you felt unworthy.
