C#/.net developer

Question

Hi Guys I have around 20 years of Software development experience. Right from DOS dbase and foxpro days. I am currently working as a IT developer in C#/.NET. Worked as a asp.net developer with c#/.net Had many roles with .net. Mostly worked as a developer in all my roles. I am getting saturated may be doing the same thing again and again. Tried in India as a Senior Developer but nothing clicked. Want to go back to India but not sure what role should I try for. Just not sure what's next for me. any advice. Thanks Premal

Hi Premal With this great range of experience; I assume that you must have taken more responsibilities in lead and architect roles and areas around various job responsibilities. In abroad it's easy to stick to one role for many years and make a good salary and living out of it. However speaking of India specifically and not knowing your exact role and responsibilities you have assumed and performed i would say Industry there will expect you to be capable of handling higher role and responsibilities like an Architect / Technical PM / Program Manager/ Project Manager etc.. Getting into developer role will be possible but you won't get salary which you might expect in return of your vast experience. Hope this helps Best Wishes.

You didn't mention your current location. However you are outside from india. 20 years of experience! Wow that's great! still as a developer? i'm not sure what you meant exactly. If you decide to return to india it's not a big deal. You can get the job easily. But you didn't mention about your tech details. Also which side you want to go either Architect or management side?
