It looks like I'll start training sometime in March, and I'm trying to figure out how long I'll be on reserve. It seems that hiring is drying up, I've heard 8 people per week until about April. So I guess I'll be seeing a lot of time on reserve.

Congrats! No, not in EWR. I really don't think so. Maybe two months after IOE max. Remember, EWR on the 737 only has 30 FO's on reserve. Even at 8 a week that's just two months of training with some going to the 756. And almost everyone is going to EWR initially and then transferring later to other bases. If you start in March and finish IOE in June, you could hold a line in August, might be back on reserve in September, and will hold a line permanently in October.
