The process is a total waste of time, and they don't make an effort to make the process better for you. The questions were very basic but required that you remember lots of broad topics. The coding task was easy. But overall my experience was bad and caused unnecessary stress. The interviewer was very argumentative, even if I was right, and would interrupt you mid-sentence without giving you a chance to answer. They were also arguing that I was not right about something, which I looked up afterward, and I was right. Not sure if that is intended to cause stress or just incompetency from their side. In the end, they decided not to proceed, even though I answered ~90% of the questions correctly. Overall, it was a very bad experience. I wouldn't recommend applying. The process is not worth it.
