Quite true. I see a lot of job fairs just for people with Government clearances. The minimum required to attend is Secret.

It can still take up to a year just to get a Secret. They don't seem to be giving away TS's like they used.  It's still better then having nothing though.

I'd have to disagree a little. Because a lot of people are not eligible for most of the positions, I think the demand for Oracle DBAs' is still quite good, especially if you have additional skills like data warehousing, modelling etc. I especially have noted RAC popping up a lot in job requirements nowdays.
