You apply through his site. More importantly, how do you think you are going to get the job? Do you have valid work permit for the UK?

No. Fake experience is just but disgusting and irritating. Sooner or later, one can discover you to give a 'hard kick' for the lie.

If you're still primarily on .Net 1.0 or 1.1, the MCAD (Microsoft Certified Applications Developer) is the one you want.
But hopefully you're using newer .Net technologies? If you're just looking at one or two certs, the Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist Certs are the ones for you (http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcts/default.mspx[^])
If you're more ambitious, consider the Microsoft Certified Professional Developer track, which is more marketable but requries taking more exams:

disclaimer: Though I work for Microsoft as an Architect/Developer Evangelist, my opinions, and occasional errors, are my own.

Wow, a new guy and an Evangelist, welcome.

You may want to do some research into what others think of certification and it's value in the market place. There are many ambiguous opinions on it's value towards employment, mind you any training is generally good to have.
Good luck.

Hi
I work for a medical aid company in South Africa and every year we go on training. We as developers can decide what we want to do and then we can submit our proposals and a voting takes place to see what we will be doing.
We develop in Magic E-Developer. I was wondering if there are any courses out there that is recommended, that any developer should attend. Last year we went for a 5 day testing training for developers, at test and data services. Testing is important, even if you are a developer. The year before that we went for a SQL tuning course.
I would appreciate it if you now of anything that will help us in development.
Thanks
Stephen

That would not be very difficult to achieve.

Firstly wrong forum. Ether c++ or hardware would be appropriate.
That said, USB is a hardware bus not a dumb port like the old serial/parallel ports and can't be written to directly. Instead it has to be moderated by a driver. If you're making your own hardware, if possible it's generally much easier to mimic an existing device well enough to use its driver than to learn how to write one on your onw. The DDK has really lousy documentation for someone new to the world.
Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop.

Hi CPian,
I need some advise from all great people here.
I had been into IT industries for last 6 yrs and mostly working on VC++ and desktop based application primarly. with each project lasting for 1.5 to 2 Yrs.and I have working knowledge of C#.
When I was put on the projects, the project was really in bad phase and No documentation. The only thing I was told to get this work done. With this working style , Now I can see myself running into various problems listed below
1.My reading tech and non- tech is totally stop and all the time I am thinking of project issues and totally burried under expections. I frankly tell you I do not get good sleep if there are any unresolved issues in projects and deliveries are near.
2.Since I had given the peice of code initially in my plate. Hardly I have written something from scrach, only developing certain modules, resolving design flaw, bug fixing and I cannot think of something new when somebody ask me if I can design. I am totally confused in such situations.
3.As written in 1, I am not updating my tech skills. and now in situations while applying for new job, they are asking for new skills. which I don;t have, and rectruiter thinks that I have only limited skills.
All said above, there are few good things about me which I came to know from my current and previous bosses.
1. Highest Level of commitment for work in Team.
2. A reliable person to be on project
3. Having a strong result oriented attitute.
4. A good Debugger, Strong trouble shooting skills.
I need help from all great minds on.
1. how I can overcome on my drawbacks.
2. what are possible road aheads for me. considering working of VC++. and allied areas.
3. What skills i should have if I have 6 yrs of exp to servive in Job market.
Thanks for bearing with me.and sorry for my poor english.
Regards.

Hey ,
Its good to hear all those comments from you previous bosses , Well there is nothing wrong in what you are doing , you cannot say that you tech skills are not improving because every time you solve a problem you learn something new, which would help you further to solve problems. You should start looking out to design an application instead of coding , because you have almost 6 years of exp. now you know the major hurdle in a programming various part of an application. It does happens with every individual , the just seems to get bored with what they are doing, not a big issue, its human nature.If i can suggest you something i would say do something out of the box things which not lot of people do , go out teach somebody the programming skills you have for free , try and find solution to very common problem , it gives you satisfaction, do this along with you job .....
I know its easy to say hard to do stuff .........

The bags aren't packed yet, the tickets haven't been booked either, and here I am about to leave my job in Australia to find new ground in Canada.
So what do I know of Canada? Well I know it's cold. (Great. That's a start). What I need to know from you is, have you worked in Canada yourself? If so, what is it like to work for the development companies in Canada? Is there a particular corporate culture I need to be aware of?

Where are you moving to (and from where?)
My quick observations:
1. It's an interesting experience being an immigrant. You are definitely second class so things like getting a Visa card, a car loan and an apartment can be a hassle. Use the accent wisely - it will get you far.
2. It's cold. No - I mean really, really, Oh My God I Can't Believe People Live Here cold.
3. The coffee is terrible. Find a Tim Hortons and ask for a "medium regular". The richness and sugariness will start to grow on you and make up for the lack of flat whites. If you go to Toronto I know two places that make real coffee.
3a. Tim Hortons Boston Cream doughnuts are to die for. And you probably will if you have too many. But you'll die happy.
4. In companies here they work long hours and you start with 2 weeks vacation. From what I've seen this is actually detrimental to productivity because everyone's stressed out and unmotivated. At the risk of really pissing a few people off, from what I've seen and heard from friends there is a lot of "it's not my problem" and "it's not my fault" in some companies. There's a tentativeness that means you don't see many people diving in and taking responsibility. They are a cautious people who don't want to upset the status quo or cause a problem.
5. They do say oot and aboot. They will deny it. They will possibly even hunt me down and beat me up with hockey sticks but one of the greatest forms of entertainment is sitting around with Canadian friends after a few drinks listening to them get worked up about how the Americans think they say "oot and aboot". "We say oot, not oot. Are they deaf? 'Oot'. See? Nothing like 'oot'" and so on. It's great.
6. Things are cheaper than here.
6a. Things depreciated faster than here. It's a double edge sword.
7. They are a confused people. They hold on to British customs and the language with deep but haphazard passion. Think about "Tire centre" and you'll understand why.
8. They still have 1 cent peices. But not 2c peices. It's annoying
9. If you see something for 19.99 and put down a twenty you'll need another $2.80 for tax. You will scream after doing this 5 times. Add $5.60 if it's actually a sit down meal or taxi ride. Things look cheaper over there but factor in the taxes and tips and exchange rate and you'll be surprised.
10. Do not touch Molson, Labatt or any beer with a moose on it. Find a microbrew.
11. Learn some French so you can giggle like a loon when you find out what egg-nog is called.
12. Most importantly: unemployment at the moment is essentially 0. It's a job hunter's market so push hard for wages and conditions. If you're in Toronto send me an email if you're after a job

That's good. Where do I apply and what's the salary?

The other benefit:
Currently for two months, there is a icon change for your profile from 'User' to 'MVP'. I think this should also get one more promotion to 'Admin'.

Let us know how you get on.
I'm an Aussie in Singapore and plan to go to Canada or the UK next year so I'll be interested to hear you get on.

It took a while, but I finally landed a permanent software development job.

And I'm still here! I also have a newfound respect for the definition of "cold".
