I have two year experince in Networking and user support, also working with the Orcale 8i. Creating queries and reports is part of my job duty, that's why I am interest in Oracle. I know the OCP test doesn't mean I have enough to become a DBA, but studying for OCP seems the only way I can learn more about Oracle and hopefully get a job more related to it.
