I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Natera (San Carlos, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
Supervisor, Lead and Department Manager interviewed me. They asked me some general questions like how long did you work for the pervious position? Why did you leave? Are you ok for working over time? Would you like to work on weekend? Do you know anyone working at Natera? What is your short-term and long-term goal? If you got selected, when can you start working?

The interview process involved a quick call with recruiter, then met with hiring manager the next day. Asked basic questions about my previous role, attention to detail is important points to dial in on. Simple interview process from my experience with quick response, not too many steps.

I applied online. I interviewed at Natera in Oct 2020
Interview
Applied online, received an email asking for phone screen availability from a recruiter. The recruiter then set up a 15 minute phone call which in actuality was 2 minutes which consisted of 2 questions: salary expectations and are you willing to negotiate (aka "are you ok with being paid less").
I then got set up for a zoom meeting in which the supervisor for the position I applied for didn't even turn her screen on. It was all too casual and didn't seem like they appreciated your time.
