Yeah there's hiring going on. But all the new hires are being put into a pool to swim around in until at least July from the most recent email from HR.

I think it would be a while, not sure how long. I'm LAX based and March was my first month I was able to bid and got an Open Flying line (a line created with whats left over after the normal bid). I have two weekends off on my OF line (where I finish before noon on Sat and have Sunday off), and 14 days off.
My fellow classmates who went to Seattle will be on reserve for a bit.
I have noticed that in LAX for March it is very difficult to trade trips and our reserve coverage seems to always be low so dropping trips isn't happening either. Also just not a lot in open time. Seattle seems to have much more variety and options in the schedule.
