As a Java developer who has cleared SQL interviews, I can attest that SQL interviews are not easy, given the vast nature of SQL and the variety of concepts and topics it covers. When I was preparing for Java interviews, I was looking for a resource where I learn and prepare SQL questions from a programmer’s perspective rather than a DBA, but I couldn’t find any. Grokking the SQL Interview is my effort to fill that gap and become an excellent resource for anyone looking to master SQL and prepare for SQL interviews.

Whenever I prepare for Java Interview, I always prepare about SQL and Linux; these are everywhere. That’s why I decided to cover essential topics from an interview perspective when I thought to write about this book. The book covers a wide range of topics, starting with the basics of SQL and database design, and progressing to more advanced topics like SQL queries, joins, indexes, group-by and aggregate functions, stored procedures, triggers and views, database normalization, transactions, window functions, and common interview questions.

One of the best things about this book is that it includes many real-world SQL questions commonly asked in job interviews. This means that by studying the questions and answers in this book, you will be well-prepared for any SQL interview.
