Process
A recruiter contacted me and set up a time for the technical interview. It was 30 minutes of SQL and 30 minutes of data structures and algorithms (Python).
I did not pass the interview, but they said I was close to passing. I got maybe two questions right from each section and most of the third question. The first two questions are warmups anyway.
Questions
I don't remember. They were just standard SQL questions, like joins and case statements. I don't think I needed a window function.
