I applied online. I interviewed at Stanford University (Stanford, CA)
Interview
Had a 15 minute phone screen then was told my resume would be passed on to the Manager. Received an email from the Manager about a week later to come in for an in person interview. The Manager enjoyed talking to me so my interview went way overtime. The Manager was completely understanding of being a few minutes late. Parking can be a bear and the campus is massive so leave yourself plenty of time. The environment was relaxed and low pressure.

Interview
Applied online, didn't hear anything for about a month and a half. Had a 45 minute phone screening interview (every question was a "tell me a time..." prompt), a 6 person panel interview on zoom about a week after the initial screening (questions were similar to the screening questions), then an hour and a half 1 on 1 in person "interview" (was more of a get to know you, see if personalities mesh chat) a week after the panel. Received an offer 2 days after the in person interview. Background check and onboarding took almost 3 weeks. My first day was 3 months to the day since my initial application. Luckily I could afford to wait the LONG hiring/onboarding process out, but I don't know how they expect people who need jobs asap to wait 3 months. The offer was quite fair, in my opinion - closer to the top end of the range shown on the ad.
