Idk. I'm here, a few months in and since they've hired like another 200 175 FOs and none have made it here. But, things change so fast it's hard to guess appropriately.

The newest FO to get assigned to LAX was hired in Dec 2016. 6 to 12 months if you are being conservative.

I was talking to a new hire about to start ERJ IOE at the end of this month and I'm sure he said he was based in LAX. But I could be wrong.

Doubtful. They're sending all ERJ new hires to ORD currently. He probably meant to say he lives in LA, not based.

All the base questions are answered on Skywest.com under careers you can see date of hires in all based.

The careers tab which was updated two weeks ago still shows the newest FO at LAX to be a December hire. Unless the new hire waited 8 weeks for IOE, which would be a long time, you are probably mistaken.

SFO and LAX both seem to be obtainable within 6 months, with a short stint at ORD.

No. ERJ SFO has been attainable before training is finished for quite some time. Likely remain that way for a while.
