    The end of Mini-Microsoft?

    It's really sad that Mini-Microsoft is going to stop blogging:http://minimsft.blogspot.com/2006/05/all-good-things.htmlHis/her blog and the user comments were, at least for me, really inspirational and have given me food for thought on numerous topics - from team reviews, to team organization and delivery of software. It was also  a great way to understand what's happening behind the scenes at Microsoft. Knowing part of the problems that plague the Redmond colossus helped me understand how and why Microsoft does things in a certain way. Mini vNext, where art thou? We need...

    It's time for MCPD!

    As rumor has it, we have quite a few MCSDs on our team and we like to keep our skills sharp. With the release of .NET 2.0 we anticipated a change in the Microsoft certs. We were anxiously waiting for details about MCSD.NET (2.0?), but alas... Good ole MCSD became "deprecated" and you have to get ready for "The Microsoft Certified Professional Developer: Enterprise Applications Developer" (http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcpd/entapp/).Wow.. that definitely sounds as if you are getting a pretty good ROI compared to the plain MCSD.

    John Papa, interviewing tips, and the interviews at telerik

    John Papa's post with interviewing tips is an excellent read: I also share John's belief that the tech skills won't get you the job. At least at telerik they won't. The tech skills are just a prerequisite to get you to an interview. Typically, at the interviews in our company we don't ask a lot of technical questions. We do so only in case we are not 100% certain that what the person has written in his/her resume is true. Once we get past that, we spend most of the time trying to understand the person on the other side...
