One caveat -- Junior DBA's don't fare as well. Everyone and their brother
seem to want at least 2 years experience. Luckily for me I've been doing
this for a long time, but some of my former employees

Only sometimes? If that is truly the trend, no wonder so

HUMMM, It looks to me like you've given the keys to the kingdom to the

Since version 4 and 5, it is constantly claimed by Oracle that things will
become smoother with new version but in reality all new versions come with
new features and more complexites. Inspite intoducing tools like Enterprize
Manager, DBA has to be involved in all aspect of System Maintenance.
I agree, right now it is one of the best growing job markets. Computers
will be around forever, and until they can operate themeselves, learn on
their own and take care of themselves when they break, there will always be
a need for people like us.

disagree. So does Parade magazine from yesterday's Sunday paper (for all
you in the US that get it - it said that DBA demand is increasing 70% per year
if I recalled the article correctly. I don't have it at work now, so
please correct my numbers if you have it).

Nope,
you are correct.
