All depends on the individual role so worth finding out more if the .net side of things fit the bill. I'm a .net dev and one of my recent roles had corba down on the job spec but when i asked the techies at interview they said don't worry about it. In the end it amounted to calling into a corba api that some server guys had written.

Microsoft Developer for NonMicrosoft techs

Hi,

[Not sure if I should put this here or in tech section.]

I am a Microsoft Tech Developer (.NET). I am been looking for roles across and there was one role which did require CORBA skills as well.

From personal point of view I thouhgt that I want to advance my skills in .NET for e.g. (MVC, EF etc) rather then going for majority C# and then some CORBA kind of a role.

Would it be adviseable to go for these kind of contracts which require you to work on these skills (such as CORBA) as CORBA is getting obsoulette. I think my concerntration should be getting expert in C# and .NET rather then doing other things such as Java and CORBA.

thanks
