Why is .NET important for this position?

It's not important but its a definite plus. Some of our clients have ASP.NET websites (typically C#), and we usually outsource them to partners. We're looking to expand internal resources to that area, but it's not a priority since we already have outsourced resources.

To be honest, I don't expect any PHP developers to also be familiar with .NET to the extent that they could work with it. I've dabbled in .NET myself, developed some applications in C# (not web), but I have no idea how .NET websites work :)

Well, just note -- guys don't often like to hop around in different languages. They like to stick to one language. Now, a few smidgen of them that I've encountered like to hop in a kinds of languages, and another group like to hop between two languages. But me personally, PHP is all I do now, even though I know other languages (including C#) and have been paid to work with other languages, previously.
