I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Genentech (Vacaville, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
One round video call, mostly behavioral questions. Questions about resume, experiences, projects. Had opportunity to ask about previous projects done by past interns. Interview was scheduled for 30 minutes, but went for almost an hour.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you made a meaningful impact and/or showed leadership.
Great Interview process very smooth. The entire process took a month or so. It was a pre recorded interview with straightforward behavioral questions and then a 45 min virtual interview with the hiring manager.
The process was smooth and more like a causal conversation. The hiring manager introduced the project they are currently working on and then the relevant skillset for the job. Then they started to ask about my research and a few specific project in my resume.
