"I have a high level of skill in Solaris, C++, Java, and Oracle."

What would you say is the best means of acquiring such skills?

Sorry I didn't get back to you before....

I would have the say that nothing beats real experience on cutting-edge projects. You can take all the classes you want, but until you have to actually get something to work in a bureaucratic corporate environment, you're just a rookie.

That's why companies want experienced people.
