I would subscribe to aviationinterviews.com. That is what I used to study for mine and it was almost exactly like the interview.
As far as the technical portion goes there were a lot of Multi-engine priciple questions (SMACFUM, PAST, Vmc, etc.) They ask you to breif an approach, make sure to look at the note that denotes RVR is 18 if you have a Flight Director, thats the only stumper that I can remember.
They also asked about Mach Tuck and Coffin Corner which were the only suprises for me. Every other question was on aviationinterviews.com. Very straight forward interview

Yes I have looked at aviation interviews. Did you interview for the captain position or FO

Besides I said around 20. I never stood up and counted every person but if it’s not 20, it’s close!

We are upgrading fo’s in seniority order. If a CA position is still open during your INDOC class, then anyone in that class that has the required hours can hold a CA slot in that new hire class. We have direct entry CA’s, but we do not hire direct entry CA’s. Everyone is a FO on day one.

We only hire fo’s. C5 does not have a direct entry program. All interviews are fo interviews.

No secret has been made of the difficulty in operating in EWR but no one I've talked to has even suggested there will be any changes (particularly a reduction or elimination) of 145 operations at EWR by either C5 or XJT.
The only rumor I have heard is that we will be absorbing additional flying in IAD so lines will be increasing there.
