Android Developers work on the development and user experience of applications used on android smartphones, tablets, and computers. They use various code in different languages, and thoroughly test and debug all code to ensure the efficiency and viability of the applications they build.

When interviewing an Android Developer, it is imperative that you assess their coding and technical skills. Having a coding test as part of the interview process is common. Android Developers should be adept at building, reviewing, testing, and debugging code and be able to provide examples of its use in their careers to date. They should also demonstrate strong research and independent working abilities.

What do you feel are the key components of Android architecture?
How do you feel about security? What are the best practices, in your opinion?

Behavioral Questions

When faced with a coding error or bug in the code, how would you go about solving the problem and ensuring root cause analysis is completed?
What do you do to ensure you remain up to date with industry tech and best practices?
How do you think teamwork can be beneficial when developing applications? What role would you take in a team setting?
