ASP CLASSIC and Procedural programming

Whats your opinion of using this? I recently went to an interview for a graduate job and this is pretty much what they are using. I asked about OOP which I am used to and more updated versions but apparently they are not planning to upgrade any time soon (Small Company). I reckon I have a good shot of getting this job so I guess I'd like a little bit of advice outside the realms of code issues and your opinion of coding this way / general guidance.

Classic ASP.NET WebForms is still full of Object Oriented Programming concepts that you really can't skirt around (every component on a page is an object w/ methods, etc.) so you should be completely familiar with it.

ASP.NET WebForms has actually come a long way and still has a ton of interesting problems to solve. Personally, I think it's much more of a challenge to write good WebForms code than something like ASP.NET MVC.

Either way, you'll learn a ton which is priceless when getting your first gig after graduating. If nothing else, you'll get hands on experience writing production code and a great glimpse into why so many people have made the leap to MVC (and what the strengths/weaknesses of each paradigm are).
