I went through 4 rounds of interviews. The first three were virtual via Zoom, with one interviewer in the first round, and three interviewers in the second and third rounds. The final round was an in-person meeting at their office with three interviewers. Following the interviews, I completed a Bookkeeper aptitude test.

The interview took about an hour. I was interviewed remotely by a panel of three people. Only one person spoke, the other two just watched. It felt like an investigation, just questions back to back, no interaction.
