Maria - Oracle has quite a panoply of development tools, are you looking for
someone who is expert in all of them, or can you narrow it down a bit.
An old memory may be in order here. Remember the days of
time-sharing? If not, look it up. Anyway I worked for a company that offered
CDC and
It really depends on what the job entails.
