Hello guys,
It is hard for me to believe that SharePoint was someone’s first expertise in software area. My personal (beginner) feeling is that you need some prior development or system administration experience before becoming successful with SharePoint. So, what were you before becoming SharePoint expert?
I myself have 10 years in .NET development (mostly web) and I have just recently decided to focus in SharePoint learning.
What about the other members of the community?Â
Probably the Developer role would fit best for me, since I have all the web experience needed…but all this Active Directory, Site Administration is also so cool/exciting/new that I really would spend some time first on the administration part and then swap easily to the Development part. It just gives me a wider perspective over SharePoint in general. Therefore, if you could answer my other question (very simple)Â http://sharepoint-community.net/forum/topics/help-with-my-use-case I would really be thankful. I am trying to build a more or less realistic use case, because this is the best way to make the learning process really enjoyable.
