I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at 2U (Landover, MD) in Sept 2015
Interview
Applied online and received an email that they were interested very quickly. I responded to the email that I was and we set up a phone interview. After the first phone interview she said that we would go ahead and set up another phone interview with someone else. This happened, maybe 2 days later. Spoke with a second person over the phone. Received a phone call that they were not interested in perusing me for that position but a similar position was open if I wanted to come in and interview for that. Went to the office and met with the team, about 4 people, and was asked questions in a round table manner. Very relaxed, Felt comfortable with all of them, super friendly seemed like a great office. Unfortunately got the call that they were going to pursue someone else. They asked if I wanted to be kept in mind for future roles, which I said yes but was not expecting to hear from them again.
Rewind a month and half later.. received a phone call out of the blue that the position I originally had applied for was open and if I was still interested in it. Said I was and came in for a in person interview 2 days later. Met with three people. First two females, one in person and one skyping in from LA and then a third person came in towards the end. Again, the people are so friendly and relaxed. Waiting to see what happens with this one.

Interview
Because of COVID the process was long (4-6 weeks) and I had three interviews. It was a good experience and I was offered a position. Didn't start for 4-6 until after offer. Had to be patient but a lot of benefits working for this company so I was patient and am excited to start.
