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.
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?
