No one technology is better than any other, they all have their uses. And much depends on the company's business objectives and the work you are required to do.

Really depends on the requirements of the projects and what you're trying to accomplish. WCF is part of the dot net framework intended for passing information back and forth where MVC is more a design pattern. IF you're looking to get your feet wet, I would recommend starting with the asp.net MVC tutorial. Also, if it is your first time using the MVC pattern, I found the cakephp blog tutorial really helped me grasp controllers and views.

First of all there's no relation between the technologies you mentioned, One has to know the implementation knowledge of WCF/Web Services and Web form/Windows Form/MVC. If the organization that has decided to go with Web or Desktop you need to learn and work on it.

It doesn't matter you are a fresher or experienced , one has to learn technology and it never ends.
Go with what you wish to learn and what the company expects to implement.

hmmm.. WCF is almost used in every project and that is reason you should have good knowledge about it. And about MVC it's part of your interest & job requirements in your area.
There is no such comparison between MVC and WCF, completely different fields.
It's good if you learn first WCF (where you should know about web services and to keep your skills updated with current market you should know Restful services, Web API) and get good command on ASP.NET, WCF, C#/VB.NET and then you can go for MVC.. :)Best Wishes ... !!!

Richard is exactly right - we cant' answer that as a question: particularly not in this case, because WCF and MVC are not comparable - they are completely different fields and do not overlap.

It will depend on the company and what it does: so talk to your supervisor and ask him. He may have a suggestion for a more appropriate subject! We can't give you a "do this" because we have no idea what would be useful in your current job, or company, or the company you may move to. They are both useful, and worth learning, but neither is "more beneficial" than the other without a heck of a lot of context.

You may get a better idea (or whole bunch of ideas) if you post the question here: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1580229/General-Indian-Topics.aspx[^] - at least the answers would be more targeted toward the country you are living and working in! :laugh:
