Mobile Apps Designer

Good designers should feel comfortable committing to milestones so you can make sure you’re on the same page, review their work, and stagger payments as objectives are completed. This is especially helpful for larger projects. It’s often a good idea to break them up into phases or smaller pieces and pay as each milestone is reached, especially if you haven’t worked with the designer before.

One of the fastest ways to grow as a developer is to have other people read and comment on your code. Frequent code reviews mean the team is committed to getting better.

This question is designed to give you a sense of what the designer is like to work with. If the professional tells you that their last several experiences were less than stellar and that their clients demanded too much too quickly, or that the client didn’t appreciate their designs, that’s a flag that they may be difficult to work with.

Mobile app developers need to be experienced not only with different languages for different mobile platforms, but also know how to reconfigure or migrate to different platforms.

Most apps must be available on more than one OS, so experience reconfiguring or migrating an app from one platform to another is a very valuable treat. Tell about your experience in this field and detail the apps you have reconfigured and the solutions you have found to do it. If you don’t have any experience, expose the reasons why you think you are technically prepared to do it.

If you’ve chosen App Developing as a career, chances are you’re always in the know of the latest apps. The recruiting manager will expect you are always trying out and testing different apps and you have a solid criteria about what’s well done and what should improve. Be sure you take some of your favorite apps on your smartphone, be prepared to talk about them from functionality and developing context.

If the designer is limited by brand guidelines, the “Wow!” effect can be achieved in other areas.

Let’s imagine that we have a beautiful and expensive pen. But if it doesn’t write well, we will probably abandon it and go for an ordinary pen that suits our purpose. Fancy, eye-catching design cannot always help an ineffective product, so we must always think about designing an experience that pleasantly surprises the user by helping him to achieve the intended task faster and efficiently.

It is important to note that “Wow!” factors depend on the concept from the UX/visual designer being well executed by the programmer.

To summarize, native apps, hybrid apps, or web apps cater to the needs of the mobile user. There is no best solution; each has its strengths and weaknesses. The choice depends on each client’s unique needs.

This is a benign question and should be treated so. Do not make up lies that you go home and begin to test applications. Showcase your versatility and exuberance for life. Admit that you like to go hiking, read books, listen to music, enjoy a play or go to the opera. The idea is to inform that you are not a bot that tests applications. You are a living and breathing human being who has a life of their own. And that answer will be very well appreciated.

There is always a better solution to an existing design and at every given step it has the possibility to improvise and make it better. Taking an example of an existing popular user interface with the issues and concerns a designer sees in it. Listing out those concerns and then mentioning the possible solution to make it far better than the existing design. More than a designer it shows the business acumen of a designer who can think from the perspective of an end user.

Answer this question mentioning about the apps which have specifically caught your eye and it is not necessary that they are to be popular. What is special about it, what are the features, colors, the design aspect you like in it and justify with the logical reasoning as to how all of it works for the best. What will be your opinion on it and mentioning the synchronicities of all those elements that makes it the best visually.

This answer should tell the employer as to what kind of feature and attributes are your personal style and how as a designer you will be incorporating it into the work while maintaining the individuality of the brand.

Even if you have an app in one of the stores, you’ve got explain the roles you played in previous projects. Explain your role in the process, including the different application platforms you’ve worked on, methodologies, data management, algorithms and other applicable technology concepts.

You want to make sure that the designer is at least familiar with the principles of web development so that they do not inadvertently create a development bottleneck. Beware of designers who just want to hand off their work and call it a day. They should also be able to work with developers to deliver their designs in the agreed upon file format and level of specification. It might also be a good idea to negotiate an agreement to modify the designs if the original turns out to be unfeasible or there are difficulties implementing it.

User interface and user experience are key to successful mobile applications, so expect a lot of UI/UX questions. State your opinions and tips on getting the most out of the mobile’s interface. You may point out which apps you think have a great UI and which ones don’t. Also, some recruiters may ask you to quickly draw a scheme of an interface –be prepared to do it.
