There aren't any open positions on it right now, that could change with the vacancy bid that closes today. Regardless, if you get A330 in new hire class you might be able to hold it in a year, if you get assigned any other aircraft you will be seat locked for up to 2 and a half years before you can bid off on the next published vacancy bid, in which case it could be realistically 3+ years before you actually get Cincinnati(if Alaska decides to keep the Amazon contract). If you come to Hawaiian expect to commute to Honolulu for over 3 years, people that come here expecting that have a much better time than people who "hope" they get something else.
