Scheduling will call you on your last day off to let you know what you're doing the following day. Crew services will arrange hotels/rental car for crews on every overnight. Per Diem is $2/hour that you're away from base. I've had per diem checks over $800 in the summer months/busy periods and some as small as $300 in the winter period or months where I would have training and wouldn't be getting per diem.
As an FO living in New Hampshire (no income tax) I would generally bring home (after tax) $3000/month
