How to make resume as fresher Oracle DBA

Hi Friends,

Today we see how to make resume as fresher Oracle DBA.

Resume making tip for fresher Oracle DBA for getting instant job.

I have seen so many resumes of fresher Oracle DBA. Most of resumes contain Oracle DBA topics are just explaining like Oracle DBA course ware. Some of examples are following.

  • Creation and deletion of users
  • Resizing of datafile according to the requirement
  • Managing backup of databases (Hot, Cold and Export/Import)
  • Monitoring of database health checkup
  • Recovery of databases with the help of archive and redologs.
  • Creating Profiles for the users and managing users.
  • Managing role and database security.
  • Managing tablespace and managing storage.
  • Managing Oracle networking and troubleshooting.
  • Instance Tuning and memory Tuning.
  • Disk I/O tuning and sql tuning.

Now can you tell me what is this? It is nothing but DBA course ware means Fundamental I, Fundamental II and performance Tuning.

When you are making your resume that time keep in mind that interview taker always knows these all things. It is indication that you haven’t any kind of working experience of DBA. Even you don’t have knowledge that how can you implement these knowledge in real time as Oracle DBA.

This thing is impacting very bad to HR department and specially Technical department of any company. There is no company looking for traditional DBA and they won’t give any chance to this type of fresher Oracle DBA.

As per my own view your resume can contain something just like following contents.

  • Schema and User management.
  • Space maintenance as per requirement for tablespace and segment.
  • Good knowledge of hot backup for 24*7*365 environment.
  • Depth know how for database health monitoring using trace files and alert.log.
  • Well verse with recovery procedures in archive and noarchive database log mode.
  • Installation of Oracle on Windows and Linux platforms with operating system environments.
  • Primary knowledge of PL/SQL scripting and very good in SQL scripting.
  • L1 support level technical knowledge for Automation of DBA tasks.
  • Troubleshooting of Oracle network and difficult ORA-errors.
  • Awareness of STATSPACK reports and AWR reports for tuning of Oracle.
  • Basic level technicality of LINUX and UNIX platforms.

If your resume is containing just like as above contents then your resume will be considered and make clear in scrutinize procedure. Means your will get interview call of company.

This is my own view and I have very large experience as interviewer of Oracle DBA for L1,L2,L3 support level. I have been taking so many interview of fresher Oracle DBA. But I found these is primary thing missing in their resume. This is my advice for making resume of fresher Oracle DBA. Means don’t copy and paste of above contents in your resume. But when you are going to prepare your resume that time keep in your mind this advice and try to make some good resume.

Resume is mirror of you. You are not sitting with HR department or technical interviewer but they will be following as per your resume. Using resume you are getting JOB. Without resume you won’t get any single job.

Next time we will talk for some other point for getting job as fresher Oracle DBA.
