This was an internal hire, so I already knew the interviewer since we worked in the same building. The whole process, from applying to getting the offer, took about a month. It involved two interviewers and a one-hour interview, after which I met with students.

So after applying, I had a virtual chat with the hiring people. We talked about my school stuff, any research I'd done before, and if I knew how to use data analysis tools. They also threw in some 'what if' and 'how would you handle this' questions to see how I figure things out and if I can work on my own. It was pretty straightforward and they kept me in the loop.

Behavioral Technical
It was a pretty easy process with only behavioral questions. If you prepare for behavioral interviews, you'll do great. They didn't ask any product-specific questions, just general aptitude stuff. While not strictly required, having previous experience was definitely a plus. The interviewer was friendly and flexible with scheduling.
