Good book for managers and candidates
This book forms a good foundation for the manager to understand the Oracle candidate and a good source for practice questions for an Oracle candidate. Is it the ultimate, final source on all things that can be asked or should be asked? No, but it doesn't pretend to be. The questions are ones I have used and have been asked on many interviews and that alone makes it worth the price.

Helpful Oracle DBA Hiring Guide for IT Managers
This book is a great help to me as an IT manager that lacks knowledge of Oracle but routinely needs to hire Oracle DBAs. The questions and answers are particularly helpful in the interview process. Selecting technical professionals has always been difficult when I lack the familiarity with the technology to parse between the experienced applicants and those who simply throw around buzz words and catch phrases. Using this text I can grade the applicants and weed out the inexperienced ones.

Two can play at the game
Does Mr Ault realize that this book would help Oracle DBA candidates get jobs too ?

Picture this :

1 You have a hirer who knows next to nothing about Oracle and uses this book.
2 You have a candidate who also knows next to nothing about Oracle using the same book.
3 An interview
4 All questions answered correctly.
5 Bingo! You have a hiring!

Since there will always be more Oracle DBA candidates than hirers, I'll bet that Mr. Ault will make more money selling this book to Oracle DBA CANDIDATE customers than Oracle hirers.
