I met tenfour at a job fair in my college. They called me to their Morristown branch for an interview. The interview was 4 hours long. Everyone was nice and professional. However, the technical interview was unfair in my view. Despite me answering several questions and describing my thought process, the interviewers were hell-bent on undermining me and proving that they were more knowledgeable than me. I am a Fresher about to enter the cloud industry, of course, a person with years of knowledge knows more than me.

The interview process was excessively long. After waiting for a month, they presented a job description that was for a more junior role than what I initially applied for. Following this, there was no further communication. It appears they might prioritize candidates with existing certifications, possibly to avoid the investment in training new hires.

There were 4 interview rounds, where I met different people from the team and management. However, there was a scheduling conflict, and I had to wait for 30 minutes. I tried to follow up multiple times, but they didn't get back to me. I received one response indicating they were still interviewing and hadn't decided, but after that, I heard nothing even after weeks of follow-up.
