Process
Met with four people:
- A manager
- Two Java developers
- One web developer
The conversation with the manager was fine; they just wanted to get a feel for my process.
The Java developers quizzed me on a couple of design patterns and overall development.
The web developer quizzed me on front-end technologies (not that I was expecting to work with any). When I didn't know something, I asked him how it was done, which he appreciated. I think that may also have helped get me in.

My impression was that they didn't renew my contract because I hadn't spent enough time getting to know the "right people". It was a worthwhile lesson to learn, but I still would avoid that environment in the future.
