I'm an assuming it's pretty standard - get off the plane and follow signs for immigration to get passport checked then collect checked bag then go through customs?
I've changed planes at CVG more than once, though never on an international flight. It's a comparatively small airport, quite easy to get around in my experience. Immigration and customs are as you describe. Remember that Cincinnati/Ohio and northern Kentucky (where the airport is located) are in the U.S. Eastern time zone.
