I’d get hired first, make it through training, then worry about IOE, haha.

In all seriousness, the training dept at OO is very good at getting people from zero 121 experience to qualified FOs. They’ll teach you most of what you need to know, the rest you’ll learn quickly once on IOE/flying on the line.

Once you get hired and get your training materials, start memorizing flows and limitations. If you get ahead on those items the rest will come much easier. Really.

Best prep you can do.

Before class looking over the aim or FAA books for how to communicate in the flight levels will be useful. Or how to communicate a call signs like SKW5252 relative to Cessna 2SK.
No disrespect if you already have that experience.
