| I'm rather new to SQL, but I really find it interesting, easy to understand and I want to start working with SQL for a living. Unfortunately, I don't understand any other coding language. What's the best way to get into the industry? I'm currently studying for the MCTS and plan on getting the MCITP after that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |

| So far, reading through the MCTS Exam guide has been very helpful. I bought the Microsoft training Kit for DBA's. My next step is to try and get a job working with SQL, but it's hard to find one that doesn't require so many years of experience. However, there are tons of availble DBA jobs where I live. I just hope I can eventually work my way up to that. |
