Interview Prompt

The performance team is measuring first-impression latency: for the first time each user hits a given endpoint, how long that call took. For every endpoint, report the average of those first-contact latencies, slowest first.

Summary

Every user's first hello to an endpoint. Timed.

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
