Upgrading a Drupal site refers to moving it’s database and files from one major version of Drupal to a later one, to take advantage of the newer features and bug fixes that might not be available for the older version. Upgrading a Drupal site is a pretty effective way to make sure that your Drupal site is currently up to date with all the latest security updates and bug fixes.

Have a look at the steps required to upgrade your Drupal site from an older version to Drupal 6.

Our earlier approach to selection of programmers was to shortlist based on the resume and call the person for an interview where we gave them a small programming task. And then we had the technical and HR interviews as well. But, in our view, this approach had a couple of weaknesses and we think these have effectively been taken care of by the new online testing approach.
