If they have not been responsible for 50 or more instances at one time, do not submit them. This is a fast paced environment, with lots of instances and if they havent worked with that many in the past, they will not be able to keep up here. Resume must clearly articulate substantial SAP/Oracle work. SAP/Oracle experience must be recent! This isn't for a specific project. It is production support work for existing databases and applications. So we need someone who has experience doing base support, as opposed to project work.
