The finance team wants to track each customer's spending trajectory over time. Show every transaction alongside the customer's cumulative total spend up to and including that row, oldest first.

Summary

Each purchase stacks on the last. Watch it climb.

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
