Hi!
What are the skills needed for a C++ application programmer to work in Embedded Systems Domain? What are the things to learn to get thorugh an Embedded Sytems interview? Actually it has been already posted in the C++/MFC Forums and it has been redirected to here by Richard_Maccutchan. Hence I've posted here.

learn how to read a hardware schematic, you will prob be asked to start coding before you get a prototype.
learn how to use an oscilloscope, these come in handy when you have to blame it on hardware =) (hardware guys never believe you until you have captured the error on your scope)
forget about frameworks, embedded code is often very raw low level from the ground up type development (unless your into a embedded linux platform)
other than that you knowledge of C/C++ will be transferable and very usefull, shifting from VB to embedded C would be more difficult because of the language differences (and VB programmers are mostly DIM.... lol)

Which Degree Holders Gaining More Importance?
B.Sc. Computer Science (3 Yrs) + MCA (3 Yrs) + ME (2 Yrs) = 8 Years. (MCA with ME)
OR
BE Computer Science (4 Yrs) + ME (2Yrs) = 6 Years. (BE with ME)
I am looking forward to hearing all of your opinions!
MCA - Master of Computer Applications.
ME - Master of Engineering (Computer Science and Engineering).
Thanks and best regards to you all.

MCA with B.Sc. (Computer Science) background is equivalent to ME (Computer Science and Engineering).
B.Sc. Computer Science (3 Yrs) + MCA (3 Yrs) = 6 Years.
BE Computer Science (4 Yrs) + ME (2Yrs) = 6 Years.
MCA and ME both are equal.
Companies are giving equal priority to both MCA and ME.
Two Master's Degrees, MCA and ME, are treated Same for jobs and there is no difference in the competence ratings.
Both MCA and ME (Computer Science and Engineering) Professional Degree courses, the contents of theory and practical syllabus are Same.
MCA and ME Degree holders are Equal to each other.
I am looking forward to hearing all of your opinions!
MCA - Master of Computer Applications.
ME - Master of Engineering (Computer Science and Engineering).
Thanks and best regards to you all.

Hey everyone,
I've got an important question that really needs answering. So I'd appreciate if somebody can help me out with an answer, that is if anyone has had any experience with this. It's about the Software Development job market in Germany. I've heard some talk that german employers tend to look down upon job candidates that don't have master studies. And that, that can materialize as either difficulties when negociating wages or increases in payment, difficulties getting called for an interview, or just plain having a lower salary than you would be granted if you had a master's degree in IT. So, can anyone help with personal experience? Has anyone had any interaction with the german IT job market? Thanks, and I'm looking forward to your answers.
Cheers.

They don't look down on non-masters, they have the expectation that someone with a masters-degree has mastered his/her profession. So, yes, having a masters-degree will give you an advantage when looking for a job.

Like most, they'll try to generate arguments to justify your payment-level. If you got a good argument to make more, you might get it.
danutz_plusplus wrote: Has anyone had any interaction with the german IT job market?
Worked there for a few years on a Dutch payroll, without a higher degree; very formal job application-procedures, and in general friendly and polite people. Whenever you encounter someone who doesn't take you serious, focus on the job - and let the results speak for themselves.
What part of Germany are you considering?

Had a job interview yesterday as an entry level .NET developer.
Here are some of the technical questions they asked me:
1. What is XSS (cross site scripting) and what steps can you take to avoid it?
2. What's the difference between blacklisting and whitelisting? Which is better?
3. Here is a database, write down an SQL query to do this, and one that does that...
4. Explain the difference between 'ArrayList' and 'Generic List'. (that one was painful)
5. How do you use variables in a web application. (ie: explain session variable)
6. Say we need a program that can do a, b and c: Design the database that we can use in the solution. (ie: give the classes, attributes and relations)
Anyone remembers questions they had at their interviews, or good questions they pose to test potential candidates?
Please don't bother answering the specific questions, the point of this topic is to create a collection of questions junior programmers can use as a guideline to prepare for an interview.

Are you sure you're remembering that one right? Shouldn't it be the difference between an ArrayList and a Generic list?

They shouldn't learn the most appropriate answers that the interviewer wants to hear, they should learn the trade 
Yes, you'll always fail a few questions. No, you won't be able to memory the entire framework, but you do know how MSDN works.

I wanna take part in open source project. I have 3+ years expirience in .NET programming (developed frameworks for automation test). Also I have 1+ year expirience in Java and Pyton programming (developed automation test). Who can recommend such projects?
|

Have a look at CodePlex and Sourceforge. Take a look at the projects on there and find one that interests you. Normally getting involved with a project means just submitting bug fixes initially which get merged into the gold copy. Once the project team gets to know and trust you, they might accept an approach from you to join the team.
Alternatively, you could always start a project of your own off in an area that interests you.

Hi,
I am a DOTNET developer . Could anyone tell me what are the best topics to learn presently in the market as i am on a learning phase !

Depends on how much experience you carry and what have you worked and learn't previously.
Basics: Knowledge of GAC and assemblies, plus http-handlers on IIS side
C#: Concept of Delegates and Generics should always be clear and try using as-many demo examples of same.
ASP.Net: General 2.0 features like Master-Pages, Themes and Site-Navigation
There is much to learn depending on what you are going to end-up working on.
Happy Learning!

They will be used by more and more developers and will become the standard for the next thousand years; or not! I don't think there are many people who can tell the future. However, if you want to know about the present, then look at some of the products that are on the market that make use of these technologies, and the books written about them.

thanks for the suggestion.....
products means like expression blend, sharepoint!!

It's impossible to tell you which ones to learn, since we don't know what you are aiming for or what are the requirements in your area. Take a look around at the sort of jobs you are interested in, or the ones being advertised and try to decide based on where the opportunities exist in the market that you are trying to break into.

yeah u r right......presently i am interested in sharepoint.......hopefully i will try learning that....
thanks for ur help
