My Microsoft MVP application process

October 1 Night about 10, received an e-mail, notice won the Microsoft MVP award, really good news of the National Day AH. October 9 received the Microsoft sent the MVP package, there are trophies, certificates and so on, the first time to get this title is also more happy, there are some friends consulting how to get this award, also recorded here.

A long time ago know that the Microsoft MVP this thing, just beginning to think that MVP are Microsoft employees, and later know not actually, but to the Microsoft technology Community has contributed to some people. At the beginning of the study, many of the tutorials are also issued by the MVP, the sense that MVP are very cattle. Then there are friends around to win the MVP, just know that this title is can apply, but need to pay a certain effort. The most rewarding benefit of MVP is the MSDN subscription, which is expensive to buy.

Because the work is busy has no time to prepare, but piecemeal write a few blog, feel away from the MVP distance is still relatively far. From the end of 2011 to do WP development has been a few years, wrote a few spam apps, to the end of 2014 to see the MVP application form download, so I filled out a copy to Microsoft, apply for the April 2015 MVP, mainly wrote a few blog addresses. But there was no news until after April, so it must have been a dead end. It is too late to apply for the July, only to apply for the October 2015. During this period also continued to write several blogs, at the same time released two apps, a today's headline WP, a surging news, in the store rankings can also, so apply for the October MVP when you fill out the address of the two apps, and explain the number of downloads in the store, rankings and so on. At the same time also filled in the Microsoft Development Marathon, WIN10 development competitions and other activities. In addition also wrote their QQ group to receive user feedback some of the situation. In addition to these can be filled out by the applicant published or translated books, posts or blog address, social network address, etc., nothing will be empty.

After the submission did not pay much attention, until the national day this day received the mail to know the election, I feel that the two app is more obvious, there are more involved in some of Microsoft's activities.

When I applied, I filled in two directions, one for Windows Phone and one for Windows Platform development, the latter. The sense of MVP to the level of technical requirements is secondary, mainly the promotion of Microsoft technology, promotion, etc., enthusiastic to answer community questions, do not require how advanced technology, multi-Gangster Microsoft Community Forum Brush posts to accumulate experience value is more important. There is the process of learning as much as possible to record, but also an accumulation.

To provide the MVP's application address:

The blog Park also has the MVP topic, can also be submitted through the blog Garden Unified.

MVP is selected 4 times a year for one year. Applying for an MVP is not an end, but a promotion to one's own learning. MVP election is only a positive for the past year, or to continue to study hard, and hope to have more friends to join the MVP team ^_^
