Database Administrator Wannabe

[SegFaultSoul]

Hi folks,

This is an odd question, but how would you get into the field of database administration? It seems like all jobs in this field require at least a couple of years experience... the old 'chicken and the egg' scenario.

Are the Oracle exams worth doing?

Well, an info would be appreciated, thanks!:D

For database admin.I would like to suggest some simple SQL2000 or MySQL certificates.You know to tell them at least you know how to control simple databases...
