Fortinet Business Intelligence Interview Process

Suppose your company needs to cut costs due to an economic downturn. During a coffee break, you hear a rumor that a lot of money goes to employees who don’t do their work, and you decide to find out if the rumor is true.

Given two tables: <code>employees</code> and <code>projects</code>, find the sum of the salaries of all the employees who didn’t complete any of their projects.

Clarification:

We will consider a project unfinished if it has no end date (its <code>End_dt</code> is <code>NULL</code>).

Given this, we’ll say an employee didn’t finish any of their projects when:

<ul>
<li>They were assigned at least one project.</li>
<li>None of their projects have an <code>End_dt</code>.</li>
</ul>

Example:

Input:

<code>employees</code> table

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>id</th>
<th>salary</th>
</tr>
</thead>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>INTEGER</td>
<td>FLOAT</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<code>projects</code> table

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>employee_id</th>
<th>project_id</th>
<th>Start_dt</th>
<th>End_dt</th>
</tr>
</thead>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>INTEGER</td>
<td>INTEGER</td>
<td>DATETIME</td>
<td>DATETIME</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Output:

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>total_slack_salary</th>
</tr>
</thead>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>INTEGER</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

Find the total salary of slacking employees.

<tbody>
<tr>

</tbody>
</table>

Obtain count of players based on games played.

Player Analysis

You have been given a table <code>tbl_numbers</code> with only one column: <code>int_numbers</code>. It can have one integer number value per row in a sequential manner.

Write a query to return the number repeated by one times its own value.

For example, the integer number 5 would appear five times in the output (1 times 5).

Example:

Input:

<code>tbl_numbers</code> table

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
