Three SQL questions: 1. Query involved window functions (SUM/COUNT), CTE, and date filtering using DATEADD 2. Worked with nested CTEs and GROUP BY. Had a good discussion about choosing LEFT JOIN over INNER JOIN - explained how it helps catch missing or incomplete data 3. Discussion about comparing data between tables using EXCEPT/INTERSECT and checksums Cultural fit: STAR stories about leading a project, requirement gathering etc.
