My interview process involved a preliminary zoom interview for screening and then an on-campus interview. The on-campus interview involved a job talk and teaching demo.

I was again contacted within 10 days later to schedule a time to do a video-based interview with the committee. I was given multiple times and days to select from. The interview was about 20 minutes in length and had about 6 committee members present (though I was only able to see about 3 of them). I was asked 3 questions (that were provided to me via email the night before the interview) and then given the opportunity to ask questions as well. The faculty conducting the interview were extremely polite and professional.
