Question 1
You will have to study history, tactics, and procedures.
More rigorous than I realized - borderline unprofessional behavior from interviewers. Interview process was also fairly extended. I was expecting about an hour - ended up leaving a few months later with a bad haircut. Overall highly recommend.
