Moses" <[email protected]> Subject: WPF in NYC To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Hey guys, I'm a .NET and Flex developer from Sydney. Last year, I relocated over to New York City to work as a consultant in both WPF and Flex, and I'm now working on one of the largest and most financially sensitive RIAs in the entire world. My company sponsors (via an E3 visa) and provides relocation assistance to accomplished developers from the US, Europe and Australia, and they're on the lookout for more talent. They're currently on the hunt for WPF specialists, and everyone from Mike, Scott, Jose and Paul said the OzWPF group was the best place to start looking. So what's the deal? Basically, you'll need to pass a series of phone screens to see if you meet the criteria. If successful, they will fly you over to NYC and put you up for a weekend so they can interview you early in the week. If all goes well, you'll find yourself negotiating the terms of your employment - and trust me when I say the compensation in New York makes even Sydney seem stingy. What's the catch? Well, you've got to prove to us that you're worth it. You need to have the chops and be more than a little enthusiastic about the industry. If you get in, you'll be working alongside some of the best and brightest from across the globe - and that's not hyperbole. If you're interested, or just want to know a bit more about the company, gimme a shout. All the best with 2011. Note: an E3 visa also entitles your spouse to live and work in the US.

I highly recommend taking the plunge moving to the US and work for a while ... its kind of surreal and definitely a bucket list item to work abroad! (US, Europe etc).

Moses" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: WPF in NYC To: Scott Barnes <[email protected]> Cc: ozWPF <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Hey Scott, The company is *Lab49* (http://lab49.com) - and we consult in the financial services industry. We move across between various agile projects - even across different technology areas. For example, I'm currently on a large Flex project, but may well move to a WPF project in the future. Since moving to New York in August last year, I've had an absolute ball. For all of the urban myths, it's actually very easy to meet people here, mostly because so many of us are not locals, and we're always up for new friends and experiences. As you yourself know, the work environment feels very different here in the states. This is in part due to the proximity to all the big developments in the industry. It also doesn't hurt working alongside rockstar developers and attending all the big conferences. Cheers, Justin Justin J.

Make sure that you get contacted on a land line.. I was contacted for multiple choice interview on mobile, and was dropping in and out. It made it very hard to respond to a multiple choice interview when you ask to repeat every option for every question.. Screwing up a multiple choice phone interview is very easy to do !!!
