I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gensler (San Francisco, CA) in May 2017
Interview
I was phone interviewed by HR (general experience/salary expectations etc), then had an on-site interview with two people, followed by a second interview on another day with the hiring manager and a second person who was in a similar role. It was a pretty disorganized process for such a high profile firm. I had to follow up with them multiple times.
