It was a pretty laid-back process. The interviewers were really down-to-earth and focused more on personal questions than technical ones. There were two rounds: the first was with a senior manager, and the second was with the team's SVP or VP.

I applied directly for a Senior Financial Analyst role at Sony Pictures Entertainment via a job board. An HR person from the company reached out to me for a phone screen. Although I applied for the Television division, the HR rep suggested my profile for a different finance division and forwarded my application. I then interviewed with the VP of Finance and after that, the Directors. After that, I was onboarded online.
