interviews
For anyone that has recently interviewed (last few months), would you mind giving the low down on how they are running the interviews nowadays? The latest gouges I can find are about a year old at least now, and I'm wondering if they have changed now that things are more competitive

Is there a minimum you’re expected to work? I don’t need flight time so would prefer to let the junior guys get more hours.

You bid by seniority for bases and the for lines within the base. The schedule is predetermined by the line. From there you can swap or shift give with the cooperation of your base mate, which in small places is just the guy/gal that works the other half of the week covering that base (usually outstation).
Billings is a bit more flexible due to centralized basing, but same basic idea.
So not really, the flying has to be covered. There are on call pilots but I don’t believe they are generally new hires.

Any feedback yet on the Spirit partnership with Cape? It seems a bit too good to be true that after hitting 3000 TT (including sufficient time as PIC in Cape metal) you’re in as a FO at Spirit.
What’s the catch? What am I missing?
The big risk, as I see it, is that you build up PIC time to 3,000 TT in a non-turbine plane and can’t make the Spirit transition. Then you will have difficulties with doing anything but moving to another regional...
