Firstly, all the best of luck for your interview... All the staff there in Houston are super-friendly and it makes it easy to relax (kind of).
I interviewed on the 14th of August and was hired, class date is September 11. Currently busily studying the flows and systems folder for class.
From speaking to some of the other guys, most of them had at least 800 hours with at least 120-150 multi. I on the other hand had 700 total time with 110 multi and haven't flown a multi since the first few days of January. I thought my lack of ANY multi-engine time in the past 6 months would render me ineligible but apparently not. I think a good deal of the interview process is the manner in which you answer their questions and your general demeanour during the interview process... If you interview well you will have a good shot at getting hired, provided you at least meet the 600/100 mins.
Once again, good luck and contact me via PM if you want any more info.
