Answer the phone? LOL
Seriously, when ever I walk by the recruiting office they are ALWAYS busy talking to someone. So the likelihood of them actually answering when YOU call is kinda low. That being said, they will get to you. We have about 20+ people per month coming to class and that is for all aircraft positions.
You mentioned you were specifically looking at the E120 FO. What is your total time?

I have about 630TT, but over half, 370ish is multi turbine SIC from a previous 135 employer. The email said to "contact them at my earliest convenience", which is why i mentioned ive called and emailed back a few times.

I know there are two FOs in the indoc class that started today, which would be in the late May E120 class. And I have heard we might not have a June E120 class. But be patient and I'm pretty sure you might hear something.

Base is probably going to be ABQ or possibly PHX. Primary reason being that those are the bases that are most conducive to VFR flying almost all of the time.
I don't have any specifics on schedules. It would be normal customer runs from the base.
I also can't say anything to the ability to gain night time. Primarily because our Ops procedures say that we can only fly VFR at night if there is an approved VFR routing for the run. And I don't know if we have those set up for the runs the VFR pilots are on.
Our VFR pilot program is primarily set up to bring on pilots who don't meet the 1200 threshold, not necessarily night time. You would probably need to talk with one of our recruiters to get the answer to that question.
