I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Gensler (Oakland, CA) in May 2019
Interview
My friend referred me and helped to submit my application. I got email from studio coordinator about first interview. We set up a time for interview in person since I am currently living locally.
1 interview + many follow-up calls. HR and the office that you apply to might be in different locations. 45-60mins interview was quick and efficient, and they have many professional teams to discuss different questions that you have.

Question 1
what type of projects you want to participate in the most?
The interview with HR is friendly. They gave a lot of information about the office. It is a bit slow to get an interview scheduled with them since they have a lot of candidates.

Interview
It was great! First I was contacted by a regional hiring person then I had two rounds of interviews before receiving my offer! The process was a bit slow, but nothing unexpected from such a large firm!
