Hiring Android developers is usually a long and cumbersome process. With constraints such as limited project budget, the need to scale and unavailability of Android experts in the local market, the task becomes all the more difficult.

Here we are going to discuss everything that you need to know about the hiring process including the qualifications you should look for, interview guidelines you need to follow and where you can find the most talented and skilled Android developers.

This is especially relevant for the projects where the integration of various APIs, tools, and services are a common possibility.
However, determining technical proficiency in potential candidates goes much beyond the knowledge of basic programming languages and technology.
Apart from the technical acumen, it is very important to evaluate the candidate on technical strength, problem-solving skills, understanding of the domain, and creativity.
Here is a list of generalized technical and non-technical skills you need to look for in an android developer you hire –

Android developers require multiple tools for mobile app development, and this requirement is usually fulfilled by Android SDK, which is a robust set of tools that are used for developing or writing Android apps.
Android SDKs are known for their graphical user interface that completely emulates the Android environment. The significance of this emulator is that it acts like an actual mobile device on which the Android developers can write their code followed by debugging/testing the same code to check for any issues.
The developer you hire is expected to have a basic understanding of activities and their lifecycle, layouts and views, user input, collection views and more.

So the candidate that you’ve shortlisted has passed the programming tests, boasts of a great portfolio, and possesses most of the skills you need in your developer.
What comes next?
The next obvious step is to interview your candidate further and ask the standard questions with more specific examples from their previous work experience rather than just asking about the technologies they worked on. This will allow you to be sure of your decision of hiring the candidate.
