Back to school
In my search for a new job, I have discovered that most web developer positions have requirements for knowing C#. I have never done anything with C# … up ’til now, that is.
I had received a copy of Visual C# .net after attending a seminar (on Microsoft SQL Server 2005) last year through work. It’s been sitting along the side of my computer desk collecting dust … until now. I installed it this morning. Took forever. It’s still downloading the service pack. It came with a book … Getting Started with Microsoft Visual C# .NET. My plan is to start going through that book this afternoon to learn some of the basics. Then I’ll look for online tutorials and just play around with things until I get the hang of it.
Of course, this won’t mean that I can apply for a job looking strictly for C# skills. But I can add it to my resume, and maybe it will give me an edge. That’s what I’m hoping. I’ll post updates on my progress. And who knows … maybe I’ll end up creating something cool.
