This isn't really chatter but I don't see a category which fits exactly, so here goes. I am looking at an opportunity which involves intensive (3 month) training in either C# or SQL Server. After that the company which offers the training assists you in finding a job. I am trying to decide which technology I want to pursue. From the POV of personal preference I could go either way, with maybe a slight edge to C#. Another factor, obviously, will be employment and salary prospects. I have looked on dice.com and there are 200+ openings for both in my area. (Boy, is that refreshing). Am interested to hear from anyone who thinks one or the other has a better job market, both now and going forward. I am also looking for a good reference for salary information. My googling must not be quite up to speed because so far I have not found anything very specific. Maybe I need a better methodology for finding salary data?

Anything I should also be considering?

Thanks in advance for any input!
