Looking at a position that uses HackerRank to assess SQL competency. Any tips? Or info on the mechanics of assessment would be helpful?

    I did. It's a slightly helpful refresher but not comprehensive by any means. a lot of the questions are tedious and/or repetitive. Would the company you're looking at be Optiver by chance?

    Does the company write their own questions and just use hacker rank as the platform or is there a standardized one? The practice sql questions on hackkerank I found to be mostly bizarre and tedious. No live coding interview is going to ask you to join 4 fake tables together

      Hackerrank will have three paragraphs to read for the question and the discussion page will be all about how confusing the requirements were 😂

    It allows you to choose any flavor of sql. Points out your errors and tells you whether all test cases are met.

    The quality of questions : if sql is your bread and butter it's medium level.
    If your rusty you might want to brush up before you attempt it.
