10+ yrs in telecom engineer, want to change career to software dev .NET. Is MCAD certified enough for .NET job


I graduated years back as a CS Engineer with lot of courses (C++, Java) as software design background. Start career as a Telecom Engineer with moderate coding involvement, but gradually shifted to zero coding. I would like to get back to software development and possible change career to IT instead of staying in Telecom. I did started taking some Microsoft development courses, and will try to have MCAD/MSCD certification. I'm kinda wondering, just a certification without an IT experiences will be enough to land me a job in VB/C# .NET software development world?

Microsoft recommends that you have a certain period of experience in .NET before getting certified. However, you can get certified without the actual experience.

As for getting hired, that depends on the organisation and your level of knowledge.

I do not recommend that you take the last exam: Analysing requirements(I think its 70-300 as I recall ) before you work in development in a software company for at least 2 years. Stick with the MCAD for the time being.

Hope this helps

Its more than enough. Try to focus more on C# since thats the language of choice most companies are looking for in .NET these days.
