Finding and retaining a dedicated Kotlin programmer can be quite a challenge for some companies. Not for us though. We have a strict hiring process to properly screen our Kotlin developers in Croatia. In addition to our theoretical tests, talents must show practical, and hands-on Kotlin development experience.
Kotlin is a statically-typed programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine and also can be compiled to JavaScript source code or uses the LLVM compiler infrastructure. Its primary development is from a team of JetBrains programmers based in Saint Petersburg, Russia. While the syntax is not compatible with Java, Kotlin is designed to interoperate with Java code and is reliant on Java code from the existing Java Class Library, such as the collections framework. The name comes from Kotlin Island, near St. Petersburg. Andrey Breslav mentioned that the team decided to name it after an island just like Java was named after the Indonesian island of Java.
The facts are clear. The demand for highly skilled talents in Kotlin development is higher than the supply. It creates a tremendous shortage in the market. Our mission is simple: Hunt, hire, retain the best Kotlin programmers in Croatia. This allows our clients to always remain ahead of the curve.
