[QUOTE="m-jeri, post: 1606209, member: 21169"] [img]http://www.techenclave.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy55.gif[/img]. Great thread. Actually, I was fortunate to work for a Top Medical equipments ODC itself from beginning. So yes, My domain is Medical. I basically write stuff for scanners. Used to work for the top 5 company, Japanese company, so their quality expectations are astronomically high. Well, Our customers contacts are people with multiple PG's and doctrates with couple of patents thrown in, so yea no space for error. Trust me when I say that. And no, others who THINK they are seen the same, dont even bother to argue unless u have worked for these guys. Then I shifted to L&T. Now I am working for a US/EU based client. Medical again. [img]http://www.techenclave.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy55.gif[/img]. Now I work/Interact and hear abt US/EU clients. Big shots. Way they work and expect are completely different. Thats what i mentioned abt Japanese to US/EU clients. So yes, noobies. You clients do matter a lot. Pray you get a "fair" one. Not one that defines perfection. But you will learn like a shit lot with the second. When I say scanners, I mean MRI, CT, XRay, Ultrasound. Nothing else. Those who you guys have seen House MD, must know the MRI UI. Thats the UI part. I worked in that for a year. SUCKED at it. Then moved to Business logic and back ends. LOVING it. [img]http://www.techenclave.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy55.gif[/img]. Basically as a junior, most cases you will be given documentation and drone work. Even if its a fix, the seniors will explain to you. Like maybe at the beginning. Then you are on your own. Yeas, THERE ARE like a TONNE of documentations to be done. It will depend on the companies you work. Any CMMI L5 company will be having a lot. I hate that part, So i push them to my juniors. Will make them do it. Coming to coding part. There are 2 parts. 1. Brand new - It could be a NEW project or a feature extension of an existing product. So you can write your own code with you as the base author.
