Thanks for your inputs. I cannot disagree with any of you, which perhaps means that there are more than one core skills that a software developer must have

you forgot “use right tool for the job”, when you say “problem solving” you must use second keyword too, thats how it works.

ask google if you dont believe me (16,100 pages)
http://www.google.pl/search?q=problem+solving+%22right+tool%22

p.s. i love keywords and pointless discussions.

The ability to work with a team.

Unless you’re going to code stuff on your own all the time you’ll end up with a group of other developers, eventually.

That’s where the ’social’, team-based approach comes in.

You might be the best ever to code straight through every task that’s being thrown at you and learn all the new stuff rapidly, but if you cannot participate/communicate/’level’ within a team, you’ll not get very far.

Just my 2 cents…

A desire to learn new stuff.
