I applied online. I interviewed at BVA (San Diego, CA) in Jul 2017
Interview
The entire process took maybe 2-3 weeks. It started with a simple email asking to describe some key skills and how they related to the role. After that I was asked to do an online video interview where I answered some basic front-end related questions. The next step was a phone conference with the development team lead and technology officer and the final step was an in-person interview with the development team lead, technology officer and senior front-end developer.
The in-person interview went well, they asked me to describe how I would go about building out a dummy mockup that one of their designers put together. They basically just wanted me to think out load and explain how I would approach the build.
I was offered the position a few days after the in-person interview and I accepted, but had to decline a few days later due to some unforeseen circumstances. Hopefully once my circumstances change I can apply again.

Interview
This was a 100% phone interview, lasting around 20 minutes. They then request you take a timed aptitude test afterwards and questions ended up being quite difficult, involving high level math.
There are three steps to the process: phone interview, coding exam, and in-person interview. Unfortunately, I can only speak on the former two because I didn't advance through to the final stage, but, nonetheless, it was a pleasant and I thought fair process.
The phone interview sold me on the company, giving me reason to believe it would be a fun office to work in and grow alongside. At the conclusion of the call, I was offered the chance to take a coding exam, and that is where I stumbled. If anything, it showed me where I could improve and what I can build upon. I would apply again.
