On April 29, 2015, a free SkillsWiki community conference on professional development was held in Moscow.

What was interesting at the conference? What skills are required from a .NET developer in the US market? You could assess if you keep up with the times. Do knowledge and skills alone determine the level of your wages, or are there still important factors that determine your value from an employer's point of view? How to talk to your employer about your pay rise and increase?

Could not take part in the conference? Nothing wrong. This post contains all conference materials. But in the future, do not miss our conferences and join the SkillsWiki community!

Who shapes our views? Our views form the environment. Who shapes our views on professionalism? Employers, government, managers and senior colleagues. You see? Our views on professionalism with you again determine the environment, and not ourselves. We ourselves must determine what we, the professionals, should be! Who else, if not ourselves?

What do you get paid for at work?

Alexey Kosarchuk, Positive Technologies Manager



But does geography alone determine the skill requirements of employees? So in Moscow, the requirements for developers vary greatly from firm to firm. What exactly are employers looking for in their employees? What are they willing to pay employees any money for? This was told by Alexey Kosarchuk.
