I interviewed a month ago.
Memorize 14 CFR 91.175, have as good of an understanding as you can of, and be able to draw a schematic of the electrical system of your most complex aircraft. That's the entirety of the written part.
The oral technical evaluation consisted of turbine engine basics, METAR/TAF decoding, trans-sonic/swept wing aero (mach tuck, etc.), a little bit of FAR speed restrictions, etc, and Jepp approach plates and STARs. My biggest issue was STARs, since flying slower aircraft meant that I'd never actually flown one, and I didn't understand them nearly as well as I'd thought I had.
They need people just like everyone else right now. If you have a good grasp of that stuff, you'll be just fine.
