Hey everyone...I wasn't sure where to post this so I am trying my
question here. I graduated in the fall of 2000 with an MIS degree.
Unlike many of the other graduates I knew what kind of job that I
wanted. I wanted to be an Oracle Developer. Problem is finding a job.
Since graduation I had a job as an Oracle DBA for a really small
company that collapsed and now I'm an Informix DBA for a company that
saw something in me. Problem is I'm not enjoying the DBA side of
databases. So I've come here for your advice. I'm considering either a
career move to law or to finish up my OCP and try to find a job as an
Oracle Developer. Will having an OCP prove to employers that I know my
stuff. It seems like they want experience but I can't get experience
if I don't have a job doing that. The only experience I have are
projects that I worked on for classes. As you all can tell I'm very
confused. I really need to know what you all love and hate about being
an Oracle Developer. Also I know salaries vary depending on experience
and location but what kind of salaries have you noticed going for an
Oracle Developer position. Any help would be appreciated.
