Interview Prompt

Using `employee_metrics`, report how widely each department's performance swings, measured as the gap between its highest and lowest metric value.

Summary

Stable metrics are boring. Volatile ones need attention.

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
