At my regional, we had a guy in our new hire class who was a local CFI and was in the pool (6+ month wait)... he had literally been showing up every Monday they started an indoc, and somebody no-showed our class so he got a seat.

What are the lines like these days?
Tons of red eye/transcon?
Or is it a fairly low proportion to the rest of the flying?
I assume this changes per base, If so how do trips look from one base to another?
What are reserve work rules like? And how long are junior folks typically on reserve before holding a line.
I assume CA bases are junior?
General QOL stuff?
What can you expect from the hiring process? Interview etc.
What are some of the cons?
I’ve got more but I’ll start there.
