I have seen some decent paying jobs for expert level Sharepoint developers so depending on your experience, it may be worth it to learn.

I've never been a fan of certifications but now that am kinda looking for a job, I could reconsider my stance.
Yes. I know how to code but what better way is there to prove it to a prospective employer other that a certification. If you guys have any tips for me, don't hesitate to drop it.

A portfolio, or examples of what you produced in the past. Is sometimes a better indication of your skills than a certification

Its all about a nice portfolio but a cert can be a plus (... and I really don't like talking much, I prefer throwing papers at people)

You are both right. A cert can be a plus, but employers are more interested on how skillful you are in the position you are applying for. And a great way to determine that is by looking at your previous accomplishments. Here in our country, most job interviews focus more on the experience of the applicant than his certifications. Im not saying that certs are not important. Im just saying that they can never be more important than experience.

Certification is just to prove what you are saying you know. If you can prove that you know xyz things then I don't think there is any need of any certificate. Ultimately a certificate only can not judge your knowledge.
All the best.

It might not be an ultimate judge of my knowledge but its a sure way to gain extra attention. Besides, it doesn't take too much to get certified, why not do in now and get over with it?

Many companies like to see information about your skills especially if theses skills proved by certifying. I have passed one Microsoft exam 2 years ago and can confidently say that during preparing some things became clearly. To get MCPD status would be very great for me. ANd soon I'm going to begin preparing.

In my interview experiences I have found that certifications are more important for freelancers / consultants than full time applicants.

Certification is needed primarily to the employer. For the certification employer's company receives bonuses from Microsoft. The certification exam is not affected your skills (you not learn any technology and purchase any skill). The first thing an employer looks a skills and not the a certificate MCPD. May be I am not right but my certification proved it to me.

I company I do side work for is changing credit card payment processors and I was asked to be involved in the process. My main job is software development and customer support for tiny software company. (One programmer, me) As a developer, and taking every opportunity to automate processes, my first thought was that we should be able to get an export for our customers that are setup for automatic billing from the system we are leaving, and import this information into the new system. These customers have, at some sime or another, provided us with signed authorization forms with full card information. Policy is that once the card numbers have been entered into the online system, all but the last 4 card numbers are blacked out. My problem is that the only export I can get from the old system has the card numbers obfuscated, only showing the last four, and no expiration date is available. When I mentioned this to the facilities supervisor, she said that we are not planning to try to import. She has new authorization forms for the recurring customers which will give us their card numbers again. To me, this is a complete waste of time and resources. Between all the facilities, I would estimate that we have between 300 and 400 customers that will be affected. A change in our payment system should not affect our customers, or cause them any undue inconvenience. I am sure that someone out there has experience with moving customer credit card records from one system to another. First, I just want to make sure that the company we are leaving will allow us to retrieve full card numbers and expiration dates for our customers. (information that we had to ke in to their system) Any advise would be helpful.

I am working in a project .net web application which has oracle as backend. I never worked with sql server and I don’t have any knowledge of sql server. Whether It may affect my career? Is it needed for me to sql server by own?

If you know Oracle and so also sql, you will not have particular problems to pass at sql server, its very simple and user-frendly. Anyway if you use Oracle in .net kwowlede lekeage of sql server will not be a problem

you need to take care of some points like
do not write as for table name aliasing eg tableA as ta it is incorrect
do not add [] or single quote for column name aliasing on write as eg. column1 as c1
do not user 36 chat long parameter name
use join instead of writing inner join
can not add in dates
With little syntax difference but significant environment difference.

I am an asp.net web developer with 1 year + experience. Along with my work I also read different articles, technical bogs of .NET. I generally work with Asp.net 3.5 webforms, jquery and oracle in backend. I may have some work in silver light also. Now I am looking for doing some certifications related to my work. I have applied for 70-536 (.NET framework 3.5 application development foundation) and preparing for it. I basically want some suggestion regarding what next I should do?

For all of the certifications that I have done in the past, I used 2 books for each one because a single book typically does not have everything that the exams have.
