Lots of people pick up a bit of .NET in business school - just enough to get hired for an entry-level programming position. They don't teach any programming fundamentals in those classes.
After they're hired at a bigcorp, the devs get by through cargo-culting and leaning on the GUI, so they never learn to actually program. Visual Studio is a great IDE, but it's too helpful for the beginning programmer. 5-10 years later, they've got enough "programming experience" on their resumes to get hired as "senior" devs.
