Hire the best 1014 React Native engineers with YouTeam

Finding a strong talent on the market is sometimes breaking the tie. Today, when RN is used widely on many platforms, including VR headsets, smartphones and home appliances under own smart home, it is hard and tricky to find someone good, especially in a short period of time.

A standard hiring process at OpenGeeksLab entails a CV review, a video or phone interview resulting in shortlisting the candidates for an on-site interview. Remember that Talent Recruiting also depends on the specific project goals & customer requests.

What is React Native? RN is a framework for building mobile apps under React, designed by Facebook. React deals with real native components. This technology is used to build new apps from scratch as well as to update existing native mobile apps without the necessity to resubmit an application.

Skills that are necessary for a strong React Native programmers

Our ideal candidate should be aware of native iOS and Android components. Also, experience with recent JavaScript frameworks and React would be essential.

Tech interview will also cover libraries and other standpoints. Candidates shall have strong knowledge of JavaScript (JSX), be comfortable in using JS tools and understand how API works within mobile applications. Based on our experience working with this type of apps, we summarised a basic skill set required from specialists in React Native:

JavaScript /JSX  |  HTML/CSS  | OOP  | Mobile background | Community involvement

JavaScript /JSX

Knowledge of Javascript language & architecture (JSX, ES6, ES7 standards) as well as Flux Design Pattern or related libraries.

WEB (HTML/CSS, SASS/LESS)

Styles in RN are written within components, not in web programming languages, still it is necessary to know fundamental principles of web development.

OOP: (Restful API integration).

Mobile background. Experience working with a Native Directory.

Community involvement: Skills in Xcode and Android studio.

Both a strong account profile on GitHub and active participation within relevant Facebook groups and other social media would be a huge advantage when considering which React Native programmer to hire. If there is no profile on GitHub, our HR team at OpenGeeksLas requests to write and send a code sample code which we discuss during the interview.

– Writing the code for a new app developed from scratch.
