🚀 SQL Challenge #14 — The Lift Capacity Problem is LIVE!



You’re given two tables — LIFT and LIFT_PASSENGERS.
Multiple passengers can try to enter the same lift, but the total passenger weight cannot exceed the lift’s capacity.

Your task?
👉 Write an SQL query that returns a comma-separated list of passengers who can fit into each lift without exceeding capacity, ordered by their weight in ascending order.


In this video, I’ll walk you through my entire step-by-step solution in SQL Server, breaking down the logic clearly so you can learn, understand, and apply it in your own interviews 💼

I will share the recruiter’s contact number.

Thank You
Will keep coming back with jobs here🙂🙂

Hello Data Engineers, one of my mentees interview experience for 4 years of experience

The candidate was offered 15LPA

🚀 Snowflake Interview Experience — LTIMindtree (Shortlisted)

Sharing the questions they asked and quick answers so you can prepare better 👇

1. How to ingest data from on-prem SQL DB to Snowflake?
Answer: Extract data using ADF/Python, land it in Blob/S3, create a stage, and load using COPY INTO. Simple flow: On-prem DB → Staging → Snowflake Stage → Table.

2. What is incremental load in Snowflake?
Answer: Load only new or changed rows using last_updated column, CDC, or MERGE command. Helps avoid full reloads.

3. Materialized Views – what and when?
Answer: Precomputed query results stored physically. Useful when the same heavy query is run often and data doesn’t change very fast.

4. How to move data from Azure Blob to Snowflake?
Answer: Create an external stage pointing to Blob and load data using COPY INTO. Stages act like temporary parking space for files.

These are only partial answers that I have added
Thanks

😲 99% of SQL learners struggle with this problem!
You get a Club table where each member earns rewards like:
MM, CI, CO (0.5 pts each) CD, CL, CM (1 pt each)

💥 Challenge: Calculate the total points scored by each club using SQL. Sounds simple? Wait till you try it. 😏
Most people miss the key logic 👀
Can you crack it before watching the solution?

🚀 How to Become a Better Data Engineer

You don’t become a better Data Engineer by memorizing tools. You grow by thinking like one.
Start doing this daily:
🔹 Understand why data flows the way it does 🔹 Break problems into clean, logical steps 🔹 Write SQL that’s simple, not “smart” 🔹 Learn one new thing every day — even 10 minutes counts 🔹 Build small projects that feel real, not theoretical 🔹 Read other people’s code (it teaches more than tutorials)
Consistency beats complexity. And the engineers who win aren’t the ones who know the most tools — they’re the ones who know how to solve problems calmly and clearly.
Keep going. You’re closer than you think 💪

🚨 Paytm Data Engineer Interview Pattern (4+ YOE | ~20 LPA)

If you’re preparing for a mid–senior Data Engineer role, Paytm keeps testing the same core patterns again and again.

They focus heavily on: • Advanced SQL (window functions, latest record logic) • Spark & PySpark performance • Data skew & slow job debugging • Idempotent and incremental pipelines • Real-world data quality & schema drift problems
These aren’t trick questions — they test how you think in production scenarios.
