Not so sure. I believe SKW would voluntarily downsize their flying (which they're probably going to be doing anyway, voluntary or not) rather than lower their standards to the point of hiring anyone with a pulse. I think.
I talked with someone on the interview team that said something to effect of that there are a majority of people in class today that would have never of made it 3 years ago.

I know a few bozos hired in the last couple months, one of them told me the interview was "a joke" compared to the gouge. This is coming from some pretty dull people.

All I can do is not be that guy, I guess. I'm prior 121 so I have a little bit of an idea what I'm getting into, but at the same time I don't want to be a dbag FO.

Easy peasy,
"Whocares" has that all sewn up, next year it will be wide open after he gets fired for lipping off to Roy G.

Hmm, I interviewed in April and the interview was straight out of the gouge. Almost word for word...

I prepared for that. The interview was pretty accurate. Now, shockingly, they'll want an applicant to know how to read Jeppesens. Also, they'll want you to know how to fly an approach and the mins. They may expect that you've seen an arrival or departure and can brief an emergency, therein.

Did your UA pass program change for 2015 (i.e. parents and enrolled friend paying segment fees)?

Not that we know of, nothing's been announced yet. Though it wouldn't surprise me.
