Got contacted by HR after application. It was weird she was calling on my phone without even setting up an interview time.
After that she emailed me. I responded asking for a bit more details about the role and compensation as it was waaay below market average. After that I stayed of responding my email. She declined me directly through the application platform. Lame.

First you receive a call from the recruiter, in this call, they will ask you about your salary expectations. If you pass this stage, you will receive an invitation to have a 45-minute conversation with the hiring manager. If the hiring manager thinks you'll be a potential new team member, you'll be invited to present a case study from your portfolio in front of team members.

I found the job post through LinkedIn and applied online through Elsevier's website. About a week later, I heard back from an HR rep and set up a phone screen. A day or two later, he called me back and offered two dates to choose from for an in-person, 3-hour interview at the Philly office. I met with three team members/supervisors. They mainly had me talk about my experience, did not ask me anything that caught me off guard. It was a really nice, confidence-boosting experience. After an hour or so of conversation, they had be review an internal site they had built. (I was given several days notice about this assignment). Then they had me do two 7-minute concept sketching exercises. I had practiced and been trained on how to succeed at these standard UX interview activities. (Hint: think out loud and practice your sketching!) After about two hours in the group setting, everyone left and a Product Manager came in to talk with me. Overall, it was a really good experience. The interview was way easier than what I had expected.

Nothing out of the ordinary and none of those pointless, more traditional interview questions. Don't worry about them asking what your weaknesses are. Be prepared to talk about the work you've done and be able to speak to your portfolio.
