You will only be place day in the job title you have applied for. Change of fleet is very rare. For ex if you have applied a rated Boeing FO will be placed on the new 777/787 according to the company's convenience.

Frustrating
I applied for the NTR FO, back in June 2016, assessment in December 2016, talent pool until may 2017 signed contracts, did all the paperwork and 2 months from joining they withdrew the offer of employment and kick me out of the process... don't know what went wrong but I'm not the only one, and believe me I did nothing wrong, Over 20 got the same email. Process is really lengthy, they won't say a word about their decision so I'm trying somewhere else good luck! Do not quit your current job until you are on that plane heading to Doha. 5.200 TT erj190

Current Boeing DECs have 767/747/777/787 experience. 737 time just not competitive or relevant imho (for the triple 7 or 747F where the growth is) for the time being... however 737Max coming soon, so things will change then. Inspite of this have met several 737 Capts that accepted to join as T7 FOs, thus gaining seniority, learning the ropes of a global Op (+70 destinations) instead of wait on a "maybe" DEC position
