Congratulations!
You figured out the test we have built into our co-op and employee application process.
One of the key characterisitics we are looking for in our team members is the ability to try and figure out an issue on their own.
None of us can solve every issue on our own, and all of us working in tech are constantly learning, so we don't expect our team to be 100% self-sufficient, but we do like it when they aren't afraid to troubleshoot things on their own in the beginning.
