Default CAL Training ?'s

Hello all. This is my first real post, so I wanted to say hiyah. I am getting out of the AF in 1-2 months and starting at CAL around the same time. I live in S Jersey, so I plan on commuting to EWR for a while which works out very well. But on to the reason I am posting--I have a couple of questions about training, please excuse my ignorance! I studied a ton about the company for the interview but never looked beyond that as I didn't want to count on getting the call.

1- How rigourous is the training? Am I going to go through AF pilot training again or is it more relaxed?

2- As a military guy am I completely behind the 8 ball because I may not know the FAR/AIM as well as others?

3- What is the initial checkride profile like, and how often are they?

4- How long is IOE typically for the 737 (I assume I will get that, but don't know for sure), and what exactly does that entail?

Thanks for any info!
