I just got added to the pilot pool after a pretty short remote video interview.
This will be my first job after separating from the military.
Being away from home for 17 days at a time sounds a little daunting at the moment for home life.
How big of a bag are Omni dudes packing?
They asked if I wanted 777 or 767. I think I'd go with 777 due to the age of the plane. When is that decided? How are the avionics in the planes?

I pack in a normal pilot bag. Depending on the season and length of trip laundry is required at the hotel. Not a big deal.
The 777 has glass panels. The 76 still has steam gauges in there. The 76 has better trips typically though too.

I've been gone for a while but when I was there the 767 had much more varied destinations. Also less dead-heading (which some people like). The avionics in the triple will definitely do some stuff the 76 won't, but really a Boeing is a Boeing is a Boeing, mostly.

I just started working for OO as an FO and with the current hiring wave in the industry I’m starting to think about what my long range goals are. I live in Colorado Springs, CO and would like to grow roots here so a home based job is more appealing to me. International widebody flying is also on my list of goals so Omni seems like a good destination for me. My question is in the collective opinion will Omni drop the 1000 121 PIC requirement in the near future like the majors are doing? Should I apply anyways once hitting 2000 hours?
