I guess the easiest way is to go to pilotjobs.com, which is some website ATP setup. It will give you the basics and link to the company websites.

what kind of company information are you looking for?

if it's financial stuff, there should be an "investor information/relations link on the main website.

if it's history, each airline usually has a brief history on their website. if not, there's always wikipedia.

some background on the company;

how they got started and a random fact (where their callsign came from, for example)

general financial health of the airline

what A/C they fly
Domiciles (they might be nice and ask you where you want to live)
general route structure (east coast, midwest, etc.)

beyond that, there are plenty of websites with gouges on all airlines' interviews

Are you serious? Do you actually WANT to work at those two places? You have enough time to go elsewhere.

Do you not have any aspirations to fly a jet one day? It won't get any easier. Why did you quit? As far as minimums just go to www.airlinepilotcentral.com and click on regionals then onthe one you want.
