My resume got selected, then I got an email from the hiring manager that the head of the department I was selected for would call me soon. Then the head of the department and I scheduled a meeting for an interview. It was a panel interview with three interviewers. It lasted about 30 minutes. Each interviewer asked questions and I had time at the end to ask my own. A few weeks after the interview, I got a soft offer over the phone, and the firm offer came in an email later that month.
