I have been through this before 20+ years ago. I flew a Navajo prior to applying to NetJets, and it had steam gauges, and I did fine flying the sim for that interview. That was an FMS system. It would just be good to get a refresher though. I would feel more confident.
What aircraft types do they manage? For most small cabin jets I would think training on the Pro Line 21 would be helpful. Older CJ2 or 3 sims might be pretty cheap.
But if it's a Garmin 3000/5000 airplane then that's pretty different. However a computer based GFS or something would help you familiarize without the expense of a full flight simulator.
