Whether you are an experienced DBA or a brand new one, the first week on a new job is stressful - new computer, new environment, new people, new reasons for doing or not doing things, it all adds up. Having a roadmap for the first week is a great way to speed up the process of getting settled in and it will help you manage your stress.

You’ll learn:
