I sent in my application online and then got a call for a brief phone interview. After that, I was asked to come in for a more formal interview during that week. Two interviewers were present and they asked questions, taking turns and writing down all the answers. The questions were pretty standard, with about 5 that felt "tough" for a part-time role, and the whole thing took under an hour. I got a call back about a week later with a job offer.
