What is the latest on training timeline to IOE? How are they deciding who goes to the MD vs 747?

Just out of curiosity, which plane is more fun to fly and which one is more of a “pilot’s plane?”

I can't speak for the MD11, but the 747 is VERY responsive, handles like a sports car. The slightest yoke movement translates to the airplane responding. I still think of the CRJ 700/900 as more of a pilots airplane simply because of no auto thrust, and no Vnav, but the 747-4 is far more capable in terms of performance.
My good friend on the MD11 claims it is a rocket ship when empty.

If you already have a 74 type and are hired for the 74, is the training time lessened and do they get you to IOE quicker?

Is this.. just show up? Need to call ahead?
Is it a meet and greet or will they do interviews? Bring resumes? Fill out app ahead of time??
Seems very vague. I’m interested but want to make sure a special trip to Miami is worth it...
