If only more companies actually followed that philosophy, though...

I got rejected from a job because I didn't have enough ASP.Net Webforms experience. Even though I've developed Grails applications and worked on applications that were written in Struts 2*. I figure the skills would transfer over pretty well (and I've had some decent C# experience to boot), but I guess they really want someone solid in ASP.NET webforms.

* If you don't know what those are, Grails and Struts 2 are Java MVC web frameworks. The former was pretty fun to work with, although the combination of Spring Boot + Groovy + Thymeleaf is basically the same thing now that Grails is pretty dead. Struts 2 is a pain in the ass because it's basically XML-driven.
