I applied in November and got a call for an interview about two weeks later. The interview itself was pretty straightforward, with two interviewers who seemed to be reading from a script. The questions were simple and repeated in different ways. After two weeks, I had to submit my transcripts, and then two days after that, I got the offer. It was a temporary role, so the whole thing moved really fast.
