Behavioral Technical
I met the hiring recruiter at a career fair on campus and then applied online. I got an interview within 2 weeks at the main office in Orange, CA. It was a panel with one person from the department and one from HR. They asked behavioral questions from HR and then some technical questions about the job. The interview process was straightforward and they want to see if you're a good fit. If you show you've done your research and are the right person, they'll see it. Knowing their mission helps show your interest.
