I've been accused of single handedly undermining the entire DBA hiring
process by providing my 30+ pages of interview questions and answers
free for the taking (oh no....do I here another me too avalance?). It
pretty much demonstrates that those doing the hiring have no clue
about what a DBA does and in many cases, neither does the
candidtate...:) I had one interviewee that called me from a cell phone
parked on the side of the road and then got upset when I actually
wanted him to answer some indepth Oracle questions, he said "I don't
have time for this" and hung up. Needless to say, he didn't get the
job...
