Interview Prompt

We are sizing weekend capacity against the start of the work week, so we need the total number of events in `event_data` that fell on a Saturday, a Sunday or a Monday. Return each of those days as its weekday number alongside its event count.

Summary

Key days. Key event volumes.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write and run your SQL against a real database
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
