Not at all. I worked in a Microsoft development house - IIS is my friend.

Fair enough. I know diddly squat about it as well. Oh well, randomly I have an interview this afternoon where I need to know it, though it clearly isn't mentioned on my CV so rather curious.

Just be up front about it and tell them you'll pick it up in no time. I've always found that approach works best, and like you say, they've given you an interview knowing you don't know it yet...

Good luck with the interview mate. :hyper:

It doesn't really matter anyway; I'm 99% certain if they offer me it I'm turning it down. Has nasty 12 hour night shifts....

I just did that last week, and managed to get myself a job out of it beating a few people who genuinely sounded like they knew what they were doing a bit more than I did :D

Well it went pretty well; and also appears to have fulltime day shift places as well, which will be a lot nicer than having to work from 8PM - 8AM two nights a week...
