Unfortunately you won't be able to get a direct entry captain position unless you are already typed and have some time in type. Primarily due to insurance and Wyvern platinum requirements. Also be warned that 91/135 flying is very different from 121. Expect to do everything yourself. I've flown with several pilots who were retired 121 guys. Most of them adjust but a lot struggle with the change.
In regards to training, expect to be sent to CAE at either Dallas or Morristown (for gulfstreams anyway). The CAE folks at both locations are great. You'll also have to do CBT's for all the other stuff for the company. You are expected to go to training on your off rotation which is total BS. No additional pay or incentive.
Like I said though, I quit last year so they may have changed things. In short, not the worst company but there's definitely better operations out there. If you get assigned on the Gulfstream fleet the pay is below industry standard.
I have an interview there and would like some pointers please. I sent you a message as well
