In my class of 12 we had 3 with zero 121 time. Two military and one was Part 135.

I was also a current 135 pilot but had previous regional 121 time.

So I would say 121 is not a hard requirement.

If you don't have an application on file and go to a job fair such as the one in Puyallup, will they call you for an interview?

I'm going to go with probably not. Go speak to them, hand the recruiter your resume and apply in the next window that opens.

You might be right. I recently had one. It didn't feel like a home run, though said chief was impressed with my resume he was constantly downplaying expectations.

I recently spoke with a co-worker who is awaiting a class date at Alaska. She said that after the meet and greet it still took a year to get an interview, and that was with her contact getting very blunt and aggressive with the chief pilot's office.
