Hi!..

Can someone please help me?

I have worked as oracle Dba for 2 and half years and now the recruiters 'complain' that I have not done any 'designing or development'.

Can someone please advise on 'where do I go from here'?

Thanks

PS: Oracle is 'useless' in giving such advise, cos

     their 'worldview' starts and ends with OCP.
     which I find recruiters 'barely notice'!!!!!

Funny story from earlier this week. I've been pestered by a recruiter making cold calls who is trying to get me to hire an Oracle Developer. I told her we had a hiring freeze, but she claimed he walked on water, and we couldn't pass him up. I asked her to fax a resume and told her I would look at it. Of course the resume was nothing special. When I told her "the resume does not warrent us superceeding the hiring freeze" I could almost hear the lightbulb popping above her head as she contemplated the next call to our switchboard. "Warren, is that the name of your manager?" she asked. bye bye.
