Kutty,

I worked as Sybase DBA in Singapore before coming to US. After coming here I moved into Application Development. The reason is most of the DBA /SA kind of jobs getting offloaded to India / Hungary or Philippines. Unless company is local and they have EDP operations here so they need DBA on site. So I would suggest keep an option open for application development as well.

Hi,

My Application status is "In Process". I have talked few of my friends(Non IT) in Canada. According to them, IT industry is performing reasonable well.

Cheers,
KRG.

Hi Girish,

How is the Oracle DBA openings in Singapore?
Saw few opportunites in Canadian job sites for Oracle DBAs. Domains like Warehouse, banking, etc cannot move the DBA works to other countries, becaue of confidentiality reasons. Still, I am keeping my development skills also open :)).

Cheers,
KRG

Hi anumatri ,

Frankly, I'm am not in a position to tell you how the IT job market in Canada as I'm still in New York. I can tell you though at the moment US job market is hot specially in banking sector. I found a job in Canada and firm is processing my Work Permit means that Canada job market also should be good. Its only my speculation. I also think just technical skills are not enough to get a job it holds only 20-30 % ground. Apart from that past experience , industries/sector worked in , international experience , communication skills all these things are taken into count.

I hope this helps.

KRG,

I left Singapore in 2004 because of limited opportunities. But now I heard that its booming.I have been working in Banks last 15 years and trend is same most of DBA jobs are getting offloaded to India and getting very mechanical. But north America there some companies who doesn't have any presence anywhere in the world still maintaining their EDP's here. There are some jobs for DBA etc. But there you will have to compete with locals.

Cheers

I think it's not the market itself, it's down to individual companies and their requirements and area off course. I've seen some IT professionals getting the jobs in 1st week of landing and for some it can take upto few months.

I tend to agree with that statement that it's not only technical skills but communication skills and other things also counts.

Any company which would offer you any sort of IT position will involve extensive training anyway before you fully take on your job.
