The differences between SQL Server and Oracle are bigger than the similarities if you are a DBA. Whichever one you choose to study devote a minimum of 3-5 years before going to the other else you will likely find yourself with mediocre skills on both.
SQL Server has no direct equivalent to Oracle's export/import or, better yet, DataPump.
From my experience, in this part of the world, there is no place for a Junior DBA. There are developers who become DBAs but no one is looking for someone wanting to jump into Oracle as a DBA. Be sure of the situation in your area ... generally becoming a developer first, and a good one, is the best approach.
