"Or equivalent"? I've found radical differences between SQL Server, Oracle, and other databases like DB2, Sybase, etc. Skills honed for one don't necessarily apply to the other! Particularly at the C API and call level. A recent college graduate would probably appreciate the problems even less than someone experienced. (I can see an interviewer asking, "which one doesn't have row-level locking, and why is that a bad thing?".)
