I was similarly once hired in the back of a shared cab. Another time, apparently saying the phrase "binary tree" was enough to clear the whiteboard and move along to the next question with a gold star. Another time I was hired after doing zero programming exercises and just telling the company that I had a competing offer (which I did). I've had some baffling rejections as well.
