Interview Prompt

Our department scorecards show a single all-time average of the tracked metrics per team, so we can't see whether a department rose or fell from one fiscal year to the next. Rebuild it from `employee_metrics` as a year-by-year average for each department.

Summary

How each team's numbers moved, year over year.

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
