Is it possible to attain Weblogic Certification without undergoing a mandatory course from BEA? According to their website, all their certification programs require us to take 1-2 mandatory training courses? Was this introduced recently?? As far as I know, this was never the case a few months back..
Please reply back.

Hi,
I still think that there should be a separate Forum for answering questions related to Oracle 9iAS. Right now questions related to Oracle 9i Database and Oracle 9iAS are posted on the same forum and there is a lot of confusion. I think Oracle 9iAS is soon catching up with IBM Websphere in terms of Market share and there is an immediate need to have a separate forum to answer some of the technical questions related to that product. Mark let me know if it is possible to create a new Forum for Oracle 9iAS and dedicate this forum for just Oracle 9i Database. I can volunteer to become a moderator for the new Forum, since I have plenty of experience working on Oracle 9i Application Server.

Hey Pradeep, U have SCJP, SCEA and SCBCD .. are these certifications not valuable enough that u are aiming for SCWCD now.. Anyways, If you decide to take up SCWCD, please don't inform N*** . I hope you got what I meant.

Trust me, don't waste your time looking out for that book. The book doesn't cover any of the topics related to SCJEA in detail. It gives u a brief summary of the topics. It doesn't cover EJB at all(just 3-4 pages) which is supposed to be the most important topic for this exam. I would suggest you to look out for study material online, which is in abundance. For more information check out the links page for this exam.

Hi,

Thanks in Advance,

I came to know about one recruiter in bay area who is looking for people having around 3-4 years of weblogic experience preferably in WLS 5.1/6.0. Please forward your resume to : asterworld@sify.com or snep22@hotmail.com.

Hi,
I just now completed an interview with a company based in San Jose, California and I thought I could share some of the questions that I was asked. I think most of the questions listed here are very common and I have encountered them in many of my earlier interviews.
1) what are stored procedures? How is it useful.
2) differentiate between inner join and outer join?
3) when should finally block be used with a try catch block? what is finalize method?
4) write an algorithm to implement garbage collection efficiently?
5) what is the difference between ArrayList and regular arrays?
6) whats the difference between implementing a thread using Runnable interface and extending the Thread class? What are the benefits of one over the other.
6) what is delegation event model?
7) In an MVC architecture using Swing (Say JList) which takes the controller part?
It would be really beneficial for people to know the answers to these questions. I would appreciate it if the above questions are answered in this thread. I would also like people to submit their interview questions so that they can be answered and further discussed.

Wang,
How useful will the book be for the Architect exam? Does it cover in detail topics like Common Architectures, Legacy connectivity, protocols and security. These are the topics I found difficult since there is not much material available online and the questions from those topics are scenario based. Does the book give scenario based explaination to all the objectives? Feedback from all those who have this book would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Eshwar.

I checked both at Barnes and Noble store and Borders, but they don't seem to have the book yet. They say that they have placed an order on the book and should arrive sometime during the end of this week.
