At BUR the sim usually used for pre-hires is a Chieftain box custom built by ATC Flight Simulator years ago. One of the easiest sims to fly there is. So stable they usually keep a little turbulence cranked in so you can't just point it and sit there. At other stations they use what's available -- Frasca, AST, etc.
Being current and sharp on the gages is A LOT more important than experience in a specific kind of simulator. If you don't have recent, hands-on instrument flying experience you'll have a tough time. Unless you're flying in the goo on a daily basis, a couple of hours of line-oriented flying with plenty of terminal procedures in almost any kind of reasonably sophisticated FTD (has to be above the PC-based desktop ones) will do the trick.
