Do you return the wife when you leave the job?

In all seriousness, you dodged a bullet. Do you remember what problem or set of problems they asked you to solve?

Also, what made the interviewing team awesome in your opinion?

The interview was incredibly basic compared to modern FANG style full day interviews. The coding portion was basically a fizzbuzz question. They had a one page printout of a Java method and I needed to give the output. I answered it correctly nearly immediately as it was simply testing pass by reference vs pass by value. The main interview was all verbal q&a core java questions.
