Intern
So, first up you send in your resume and a cover letter. Then, HR does a quick look to see who they wanna talk to. After that, there's usually a quick phone call to check if you're basically qualified. If that goes well, you'll have some more detailed interviews, either in person or online, with a few people. For some jobs, you might have to do a test too. Sometimes, a final chat with higher-ups happens before they check your references. If you get through all that, they'll send a formal offer with the pay and benefits, and then you get onboarded to learn about the company.
