Advanced SQL Queries Interview Questions and Answers

49. Select employee details from employee table if data exists in incentive table ?

select * from EMPLOYEE where exists (select * from INCENTIVES)

Explanation : Here "exists" statement helps us to do the job of If statement. Main query
will get executed if the sub query returns at least one row. So we can consider the sub
query as "If condition" and the main query as "code block" inside the If condition. We
can use any SQL commands (Joins, Group By , having etc) in sub query. This
command will be useful in queries which need to detect an event and do some activity.

50. How to fetch data that are common in two query results ?
select * from EMPLOYEE where EMPLOYEE_ID INTERSECT select * from EMPLOYEE

where EMPLOYEE_ID < 4

Explanation : Here "INTERSECT" command is used to fetch data that are common in 2
queries. In this example, we had taken EMPLOYEE table in both the queries.We can
apply INTERSECT command on different tables. The result of the above query will
return employee details of "ROY" because, employee id of ROY is 3, and both query
results have the information about ROY.

51. Get Employee ID's of those employees who didn't receive incentives without
using sub query ?
select EMPLOYEE_ID from EMPLOYEE

MINUS

select EMPLOYEE_REF_ID from INCENTIVES

Explanation : To filter out certain information we use MINUS command. What MINUS
Command odes is that, it returns all the results from the first query, that are not part of
the second query. In our example, first three employees received the incentives. So
query will return employee id's 4 to 8.

52. Select 20 % of salary from John , 10% of Salary for Roy and for other 15 % of
salary from employee table
SELECT FIRST_NAME, CASE FIRST_NAME WHEN 'John' THEN SALARY * .2 WHEN

'Roy' THEN SALARY * .10 ELSE SALARY * .15 END "Deduced_Amount" FROM

EMPLOYEE

Explanation : Here, we are using "SQL CASE" statement to achieve the desired
results. After case statement, we had to specify the column on which filtering is applied.
In our case it is "FIRST_NAME". And in then condition, specify the name of filter like
John, Roy etc. To handle conditions outside our filter, use else block where every one
other than John and Roy enters.

53. Select Banking as 'Bank Dept', Insurance as 'Insurance Dept' and Services as
'Services Dept' from employee table

SQL Queries in Oracle, SELECT distinct DECODE (DEPARTMENT, 'Banking', 'Bank Dept',

'Insurance', 'Insurance Dept', 'Services', 'Services Dept') FROM EMPLOYEE

SQL Queries in SQL Server and MySQL, SELECT case DEPARTMENT when 'Banking'

then 'Bank Dept' when 'Insurance' then 'Insurance Dept' when 'Services' then 'Services

Dept' end FROM EMPLOYEE

Explanation : Here "DECODE" keyword is used to specify the alias name. In oracle we
had specify, Column Name followed by Actual Name and Alias Name as arguments. In
SQL Server and MySQL, we can use the earlier switch case statements for alias
names.

54. Delete employee data from employee table who got incentives in incentive
table

delete from EMPLOYEE where EMPLOYEE_ID in (select EMPLOYEE_REF_ID from

INCENTIVES)

Explanation : Trick about this question is that we can't delete data from a table based
on some condition in another table by joining them. Here to delete multiple entries from
EMPLOYEE table, we need to use Subquery. Entries will get deleted based on the
result of Subquery.

55. Insert into employee table Last Name with " ' " (Single Quote - Special
Character)

Tip - Use another single quote before special character

Insert into employee (LAST_NAME) values ('Test''')

56. Select Last Name from employee table which contain only numbers

Select * from EMPLOYEE where lower(LAST_NAME)=upper(LAST_NAME)

Explanation : In order to achieve the desired result, we use "ASCII" property of the
database. If we get results for a column using Lower and Upper commands, ASCII of
both results will be same for numbers. If there is any alphabets in the column, results
will differ.

57. Write a query to rank employees based on their incentives for a month
select FIRST_NAME,INCENTIVE_AMOUNT,DENSE_RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY

INCENTIVE_DATE ORDER BY INCENTIVE_AMOUNT DESC) AS Rank from EMPLOYEE

a, INCENTIVES b where a.EMPLOYEE_ID=b.EMPLOYEE_REF_ID

Explanation : In order to rank employees based on their rank for a month,

"DENSE_RANK" keyword is used. Here partition by keyword helps us to sort the
column with which filtering is done. Rank is provided to the column specified in the order
by statement. The above query ranks employees with respect to their incentives for a
given month.

58. Update incentive table where employee name is 'John'

update INCENTIVES set INCENTIVE_AMOUNT='9000' where

EMPLOYEE_REF_ID=(select EMPLOYEE_ID from EMPLOYEE where

FIRST_NAME='John' )

Explanation : We need to join Employee and Incentive Table for updating the incentive
amount. But for update statement joining query wont work. We need to use sub query to
update the data in the incentive table. SQL Query is as shown below.

"SQL Union" Query Interview Questions

69. Select First_Name,LAST_NAME from employee table as separate rows

select FIRST_NAME from EMPLOYEE union select LAST_NAME from EMPLOYEE

70. What is the difference between UNION and UNION ALL ?

Both UNION and UNION ALL is used to select information from structurally similar tables.

That means corresponding columns specified in the union should have same data type. For

example, in the above query, if FIRST_NAME is DOUBLE and LAST_NAME is STRING

above query wont work. Since the data type of both the columns are VARCHAR, union is

made possible. Difference between UNION and UNION ALL is that , UNION query return

only distinct values.
