will i get hired?

I had my one and only interview for a position on the derivatives desk (swap) I was interviewed by 6 people..All were asking how my VBA is and my Excel. I said my excel is pretty good...My VBA is very basic... The technical director (who assess your technical knowledge; and who happened to have been the main options trader) was blown away by speed of my answers to her questions and the accuracy under pressure (from FRA to SWAPS, to Bootstrapping etcc...), and told me i HAD to work for this firm, and that the firm would be doing itself a favor to hire me.

Now; on the basis of VBA and excel, they might not hire me. What are the chances they overlook that (i.e: trust that i am quick learner)??

thanks
