a little, but with just 6 months experience it probably would not help much. Most DBA jobs want 4-5 years or more experience these days.

you should take the first job that is offered. you cant afford to turn anything down. If you dont like it, look for another one, but dont count on too many options.

sorry. Hope I dont get you down.
