Prior to receiving a job offer, candidates must possess a FAA flight-engineer certificate or have passed the FAA flight-engineer written examination (FEB and FEJ or FEX) that would be in effect when empolyment commences.
The competitive interviewee actually selected for an interview at UAL in 1998 (for a white male) was 7,000 hours TT 2,500 TPIC and 4 type ratings... on average.

Advertised vs actual.
