The hiring process is partly driven by the requirements for an accredited institution so that getting hired does mean that you have some academic achievements. PhD is not required, but of course, as it's the gold card of the profession, having one helps. The HR department checks applications against position requirements and your application must, repeat much, meet or exceed them. The interview process is by a committee and the same questions are asked of each of the interviewees in each session. Followup questions are sometimes allowed but generally, the answers you give for each question will determine if you are in the running.

I didn't think any of the questions were particularly difficult; the one unexpected one was "What would you do if a student in the class got out of control?"
A few months after applying for an adjunct pool, I got an email to set up an interview for three weeks later. There was a (zoom) panel of 4 instructors from different departments. It was a very simple 5 question interview with basic questions about strengths/weaknesses and teaching experience. The interview itself was straightforward, but afterward it was very difficult to get any basic information about 1) whether or not I had actually been hired/added to the pool, and 2) how to get assigned classes to teach.

I applied and it took roughly 2-3 weeks to schedule the interview. It was an online panel of about 4 people from the department via Zoom. Make sure to apply before the deadlines, they hire for the next year in January.

They asked pretty standard questions like greatest strength, weakness, what's my greatest teaching triumph, when have I had a struggling student, hardest teaching moment and what I learned, and how I deal with behaviors in the classroom.

The interview was with the department head. It involved a series of questions to determine if you're suited for higher-education teaching. They want to know if you had any experience teaching in a classroom setting, describe your teaching approach, strengths and weaknesses, how would you handle different situations in the classroom. After the interview, I had to keep contacting the department head in order to actually get the job.
