The Drupal Development Company has today emerged as a top notch in the CMS industry. The competition now is so fierce that it sometimes becomes hard to hire a perfect Drupal Developer for your business. All the individuals are talented and claim to provide their best. In order to ease this challenging process, here are some basic things to look for in the individual opting for the renowned Drupal consulting services. Education Education will always be the primary factor to look for in the applicant for any kind of job. In a tech world like that of Drupal’s, a candidate with a professional degree or graduation in computer science is usually preferred. However, individuals from other fields can also be equally welcomed in the Drupal industry if they cover up their college degree with skills such as web designing, machine code writing, Orthogonality, OO principles, decoupling etc. Scrum Certification or PMP certifications provide additional benefits especially to project managing jobs. Experience Once the education has been checked, it is now time to consider the applicant’s work experience. There is absolutely no substitute for an experience like the one provided by Drupal Consulting and development. Check if the candidate has any experience in terms of participation in the Drupal’s online discussion forums and issue queues. This will aid in having an idea about his or her coding qualities and their work within the community with other developers as and when an issue has been raised. Thus, it is an easy and smart way to acquaint you with the candidate’s decisive skills as well as other capabilities to work in a team. If the applicant has been participating actively in the community activities and discussions, then this clearly implies that your candidate is likely to follow and know best practices and is more plugged into the other latest and upcoming modes of the Drupal world. Henceforth, they can easily provide you with a more sustainable work. The Extra Credit: An introductory Video Though cover letters have been conventionally used to check the candidate’s writing skills and in the evaluation of his or her interest or value to the company, the latest trend of the introductory videos certainly goes an extra mile. Simply ask the potential applicants to prepare a short and introductory video of them focusing on why they are interested in working with the Drupal Consulting Services and why they consider themselves to be suitable for the job. Restrict the duration of the video to only a short interval of two to three minutes as you only wish to get the first impression of your candidate. Introductory videos are also an interesting way to check your candidate’s communication as well as presenting skills. Moreover, asking for an introductory video with the job applications also aids in saving time and quickens the selection process as depending on the quality of the video, you can shortlist and call only potential candidates for the final interview.
