What does it take to become a FI?

Hi,

Please can someone answer me the following questions:

1. What ratings (apart from the FI(A) Rating itself) do I need to become a fully qualified Flying Instructor?
Do I need a CPL, IR and Multi Rating?

2. What would be the minimum number of hours I'd need before even being considered for employment by a flying school once qualified?

3. What are the chances of finding full-time employment as a FI in the current climate?

4. What can a full-time Instructor earn? Are they paid a basic monthly wage, or are they paid depending on how many hours flying they do per month?

Many thanks to anyone who can give me some insight.
