The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Redwood City, CA)
Interview
The whole process was initially slow but once they have interest in you it started moving a lot faster. Had a phone screen, then a interview with the lead and then an onsite interview. The interviews were pretty laid back. No dumb questions like what is your biggest weakness.
It was a couple of panel interviews with animators through zoom. They went through my resume, demo reel and animation test. Also asked about the production experience and favorite video games.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Redwood City, CA) in Sept 2016
Interview
first it started from email from recruiters and you will have a phone call, or on-site interview. It depends on your location. I think they do not offer relocation for contractors. and you need to relocate yourself if you want that job.
