Jo,

   I am Brazilian and have a Law degree. The Law system here is totally
different and I'd have to basically learn everything over again plus I
didn't really like law. I chose the tech field because I had to pick
something :) I know it's tough. But hopefully I'll be alright - someday.
   So far I got the Oracle8i-DBA certification. Now I'm just "playing"
with Linux and Oracle at home until I feel ready to start looking for an
entry-level job. I didn't start yet because I know I need some
experience, but nobody will hire me *because* of my lack of experience,
so it's a vicious circle and the only thing I can think of is to stay
home learning...  That's my story :)
