Hi,

I recently interviewed a person for an Oracle8 DBA role. His CV stated he was Oracle 7 and 8 certified (hence the interveiw) however he admitted during the interview that he had never used Oracle 8 - He'd done the Oracle courses and sat the exams.
He was a competent Oracle7 DBA but when questioned about Oracle 8 features he couldn't answer 1 question.
My advice would be to take your time and only sit an exam when you feel you understand the subject. That way when you pass you won't find yourself in the embarrassing situation like this poor chap (BTY he didn't get the job!!)
