How long did you have your application in before you received an invite? 1-6 months

How long was it from the time of your invite to the actual interview? 4 weeks
Did you have any issues with logbooks, application or paperwork? No
How did you prepare for the JKT/COG portion of the interview? RST, hard to envision a scenario where I would have made it through day one without it.
Technical Test Questions Honestly can’t remember specifics. It’s a hard test but doable with the proper prep. Follow the advice of knowing concepts, memorizing test bank questions will not work.
What was the hardest technical question or content you experienced during the job knowledge test? Can’t recall specifics.
Cog Test Cog test was a non issue with RST prep. I practice daily and flew through the actual test.
Cog Math Questions I found the Cog Math to actually be harder on the actual test. Almost all of the problems involved percentages which I am terrible at, I can barely calculate a tip in my head Lol. That being said, I still passed the test. I think if you are strong in the other areas you can overcome a weakness in that area.
HR Questions No curve balls there, if you prepare with Emerald Coast you will be ready.
How long prior to the interview did you prepare for the HR portion of the interview? 4 weeks.
Which HR Prep service did you use and did it help? Emerald Coast and Centerline. They were both invaluable.
