I have to agree with Robin, ask the same person, who passed your "simple"
question, How they would approach a badly tuned database and see what
response you get.
I am an Oracle DBA, and have been interviewed by many companies. The
questions that were asked, were questions that dealt with "Real world"
issues. After all, lf they wanted a me to type "Hello World", let them
Hire a Programmer.
I had one person ask me..."How is it that you know Oracle, and not know
C?". I thought I was at the wrong interview.
Anyways...long story short, I am currently employed in Beverly Hills as an
Oracle DBA, and a member of the Los Angeles Oracle Users Group. They
started me out at 30K (This is what happens when u don't have experience),
but you have to start somewhere.
