flybe definitely were holding interviews last week - I was fortunate enough to have one! I believe that there were about 13 interviews in total...
They are recruiting first officers for a holding pool, and hints were made that successful applicants will start Dash 8 type ratings in 2-4 months time (once the bases and aircraft allocations had been finalised).
Suggestions were that Belfast would be the most likely base for new recruits, and there was no mention of Jersey - I don't have any residency rights there so I don't think I'm allowed to work in Jersey anyway...
Cheers
