What was the hardest technical question or content you experienced during the job knowledge test?	A lot of the questions on the job knowledge test were not the same I received during practice tests, but the content was the same. The flashcards helped a lot and the exact pages and content in the 15 day program helped.
HR Questions	Very conversational. I walked in and they asked me about my hometown, introduced themselves. 5-7 mintes to tell them about myself I was asked about school and driving infractions. I was asked about what I did with Women in Aviation. Is it ever okay for a First Officer to take the controls from the Captain. Has it ever happened to me? How do I keep from being complacent? Have I ever had a problem with newer pilots at my company? A mechanical issue. When I push up the power the engine fire light comes on and when power is at idle it goes away. Checklist already run, it says okay to keep the engine on but land at nearest practicable airport. (ATL -JFK)
