Came across well at the interview

Great explanation, thanks

Yes, English is great, indeed

Then I believe it is one of these cases where the definite article may be omitted but still the sentence has the meaning as if it is present.

I'm not sure what you mean by "has the meaning as if it is present". The tense has nothing to do with. You can use "at interview" or "at the interview" in many different contexts and timeframes.
