Pick me Flybe!

Hey guys and girls,
Just a quicky to those chaps and chapesses, who, if you like are at the top of the tree, e.g. 747, 777, A330, a340 etc etc etc
I am a wanabee currently working as an FIC having a fantastic time, i wish someone had told me about instructing sooner!
However my question is, i often here of drivers at flybe, loganir, eastern and similar getting poached by the likes of easyjet, and monarch etc. Is this how the game is played, do easyjet or similar headhunt from the smaller regionals.
If this is the case, did you guys, the drivers at the top get hunted from the likes of monarch/ easyjet once you had 4000/5000 hours with them.
How did you get to fly the large aircraft with the worlds most favourite airline, or virgin, BMI etc. Do you still have to go through the same application proceedures, or do they simply want to get hold of your experience?
