Λέω "γεια σου" γιατί ξεφέυγει εντελώς από αυτά που ξέρουμε
(Και ένα μυστικό)
Μάθετε ότι έχει αναφερθεί πιο πάνω, εξειδικευτείτε σε niche καταστάσεις
Σε Ινδία, Κίνα, Α. Ευρώπη υπάρχουν στρατιές προγραμματιστών σε Java, .Net όμως οι καλοί προγραμματιστές σε Ruby, Haskell, micro controllers, τρομεροί webdesigners etc είναι λίγοι και πληρώνονται αδρά
The offshore market has injected its low-cost programmers into a relatively narrow set of technologies. Java and .NET programmers are a dime a dozen in India. India has a lot of Oracle DBAs as well. Less mainstream technologies are very much underrepresented by the offshore development shops. When choosing a technology set to focus your career on, you should understand the effects of increased supply and lower prices on your career prospects.
As a .NET programmer, you may find yourself competing with tens of thousands of more people in the job market than you would if you were, for example, a Python programmer. This would result in the average cost of a .NET programmer decreasing significantly, possibly driving demand higher (i.e., creating more .NET jobs). So, you’d be likely to find jobs available, but the jobs wouldn’t pay all that well. The supply of Python programmers might be much smaller than that of .NET programmers with a demand to match.
If the Python job market were to support noticeably higher prices per-programmer, additional people might be attracted to supply their services at this higher price range, resulting in competition that would drive the price back down.
The whole thing is a balancing act. But, one thing seems certain (for now). India caters to the already balanced IT services markets. You don’t find mainstream Indian offshoring companies jumping on unconventional technologies. They aren’t first-movers. They generally don’t take chances. They wait for technology services markets to balance, and they disrupt those markets with significantly lower per-programmer costs.
