Interview Prompt

Data science wants to model spending trends per user over time. For every row in transactions, pull that user's previous transaction amount (by transaction_date) onto the same row, leaving the value empty on a user's first transaction. Return the user_id, total_amount, transaction_date, and the previous amount.

Summary

What did they spend last time? Context changes everything.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your sql solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
