I just finished an IPC with a CFII who just got hired at BTQ. He is what he mentioned:

1. Having references within the company is huge.
2. Hours for FO position to be competitive is now at the 600-700 range.
3. Technical interview is very straightforward and focuses on IFR knowledge.
4. Upgrades are very fast, as soon as one crosses the 1200 hour mark, it will happen.
