Interview Prompt

The data platform team measures how efficiently each pipeline run turns the rows it reads into the rows it writes back out. For every run, show the pipeline name, its start time, and the ratio of rows written to rows read, ordered by pipeline name and then start time.

Summary

Every run loses a little on the way. Measure what makes it through.

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
