Fairly straight forward. Submitted application through the portal. Received a call to set up an interview maybe two weeks later. It was just me and the interview committee. For the first part they read questions off of a sheet of paper. After that, they did ask some basic technical questions.

How would you tell someone to make a peanut butter sandwich?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Penn State in Apr 2025
Interview
They lied about the salary range in the job posting. Salary range listed was between 42,000 and 61,000. I get an email wanting to setup the interview and they mention that the salary range is actually 42,000 and 46,000. I scheduled the interview any way to see if I could get maybe get some reason why if they would bring it up. I schedule the interview over Zoom and they had 3 people on the call which seemed a bit overkill being the 1st round. They mentioned they only had 30 minutes and couldn't go past that because of other interviews lined up so it was kind of rushed.

Called for a phone interview about a week after applying. A week after the phone interview, I was called for an in-person interview. It took a month (4 weeks) after the in-person interview for me to receive the call that they were offering me the position.
