Outsource database administrators to the Philippines

What key skills and qualifications make a great database administrator?

Database administrators work with computers constantly to ensure the systematic management of security, storage and access surrounding large amounts of data. To do this efficiently, they have to have a good understanding of data security, cloud-based technologies and recovery procedures.

Outsourcing services recruit database administrators the same way an internal talent acquisition team would. Essentially, they ask the same questions to understand whether these offshore candidates would be able to provide the level of quality required by Australian organisations:

• What experience and knowledge do you have working with database software to ensure the appropriate storage, organisation and management of data?
• How familiar are you with database design and meeting user requirements?
• What are your problem-solving and troubleshooting skills like?
• How do you ensure excellent communication when speaking with IT project managers to design DMS?
• What data security techniques and disaster recovery plans do you use?
• Provide an example of how you showcased a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
• What DMS are you familiar with?

In terms of qualifications, a higher education degree or certificate in computer science, software engineering, electronic engineering or mathematics is desirable. Database administrators need to be fluent in technical programs such as Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle. Outsourcing companies can help you find the right candidate to meet your organisation's tech support requirements by hiring these specialists who can efficiently control DMS and manage user requirements accordingly.
