I was a .NET developer for most of my early career. Only recently has a different stack replaced .NET as the one I have most YoE with. I decided I wanted to leave the world of non-tech enterprise companies and get into a Silicon Valley style tech company for greater pay and perks. As my job search went on, I realized having .NET in my resume was a big problem. I was showered with recruiters pitching jobs at the types of companies I specifically did not want to work at - because .NET is a huge presence there. Only after I removed every mention of .NET from my resume and LinkedIn profile did I get more focused (albeit fewer) attention from the types of companies I was interested in.
