Congrats Ve764.. Reason why the lack of interest on the FO side to go on the 787 is because the upgrade is fast and furious, right now it is about two years from right seat 777 to upgrade 777 left seat.
They are also automatically attaching 787 types to 777 pilots licenses, saw it today with the FO I was flying with showed me a Dreamliner Type attached to his certificate.

Three completely different fleets with completely different rosters.
320 - has changed a bit over the years, but still at core mainly intra-gulf turnarounds and short layovers in the Indian sub continent. Has picked up some interesting destinations such as Maldives and Seychelles, but still the workhorse fleet.
330 - Almost exclusively mid range flying to Asia, Europe, and Africa. 6 to 10 hour range. Also three freighters mixed in that go many non EY destinations.
340 - Mostly ULR, some Europe/Asia mid range
Almost all Airbus pilots as a rule are mixed fleet (320/330 or 330/340)
777 - Mix of ULR to North America and Oz, some short to medium range High Density flying mainly to Asia.
This being said, typical rosters vary widely depending on fleet and type mixing. ULR may have more off days, while short haul could fly mostly days and be home more nights etc.

On the EY career page it says that the application deadline was December 2013, however if I click to apply, it let's me continue with the application. Does anybody have any insight on this? Are they actually accepting applications?

I clicked on it and it says the job is no longer available.

One benefit of taking new aircraft types last (among the big 3 ME airlines) is that you can design the most innovative interior after you have sampled the others... Sounds like EY will be going all out for their upcoming A380s and 787s:
[>talkinterior] Etihad Amazes the World With New Cabin | >talkairlines | >Kai-Chin Shih TALK
Looks awesome (and expensive)! Even the economy seats on the 787 look comfortable. Gotta do something to differentiate your product with EK and QR in the neighborhood.
