Getting a computer science degree is a pretty common baseline for becoming a professional developer. But there are plenty of other developers out there that are self-taught or have degrees in other disciplines. For this study we're looking for developers without a computer science degree to participate.
Here are the criteria:
* Professional Developer
* Been working as a developer for less than 1 year
* Code at least 20 hours per week, 50% of the time in C#
* No computer science degree
* US Citizen, 18 years of age or older
Available for one of the following time slots:
Tues. Jan. 29th, 1-3pm
Wed. Jan. 30th, 9-11am
Wed. Jan. 30th, 2-4pm
Wed. Jan. 30th, 4:30-6:30pm
Thurs. Jan. 31st, 8-10am
Thurs. Jan. 31st, 10:30am-12:30pm
You'll get to take a look at a new product under development and give direct feedback to one of our Researchers. As a thank you, we'll give you your choice of a retail Microsoft software or hardware title from a list of our most popular products including Visual Studio.NET Professional 2005, Expression Studio, Office 2007, Windows Vista Home Premium, and much more.
If you meet the criteria and are interested in participating, please send an email to uccoord@microsoft.com with a subject of 'C# Study'. Please include your phone number for immediate consideration.
If you don't meet the criteria for this study but would like to participate in others, sign up online at www.microsoft.com/UserResearch.
