Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 18 days. Took a week to contact me. Then interview scheduled within one more week. I interviewed at Zerto in July 2015.
The interview was strange as it was pretty short. From the beginning 2 guys show no too much interest. They asked did I read about the company and understand what they are doing, showing no willing to tell about the company. I actually did but it was a hard part as I had 1 or even 2 interviews a day and read about tens of companies dealing with storage technologies and in stressful situation suddenly got blackout. :) Then they ran briefly on my skills and experience. At some point they just interrupted me on telling about my experience and suggested to move to the technical test. The question is below and that's all they asked me. All took about 30 minutes. No offer after that, received response via e-mail.

Question 1
On white board was given a system that consists of local server(s) + hub/controller + storage and the same mirrored remote system connected with some network. Between the controller and network line are 2 buffers + 2 buffers at the remote end of network line as well. I was asked to test this system (everything I can think about) and tell them. The system stores data synchronously: data comes from servers through the controller and sent to remote site first. If acknowledge that the data written OK at remote site was received it stores it locally too. Otherwise write command fails/cancelled. I was asked to list all strong and weak points of this writing method. Then they changed it to a-synchronous method when data always stored locally first and mirrored to remote site. I also was asked to compare this 2 methods.
