Q:

What are aggregate functions in SQL? What are those functions?

Answer

Aggregate functions in SQL are used to perform calculation on data. These functions are inbuilt in SQL and return a single value.

SUM( )



SUM function returns the sum or addition of all NOT NULL values of a column. For e.g. I have a Table employee with the fields id, name, salary and I want the sum of all salaries, I can use SUM function as shown
SELECT SUM(emp_salary) from employee;
Hence, if my column emp_salary has values 20,000, 22,000, 21,000; the output will be 63,000

AVG( )


 
AVG function returns the average of all NOT NULL values of a column. For e.g. I have a Table employee with the fields id, name, salary and I want the average of all salaries, I can use AVG function as shown
SELECT AVG(emp_salary) from employee;
Hence, if my column emp_salary has values 20,000, 22,000, 21,000; the output will be 21,000

COUNT( )



COUNT function returns the number of rows or values of a table. For e.g. I have a Table employee with the fields id, name, salary and I want the count of all rows, I can use COUNT function as shown
SELECT COUNT(*) from employee;

Max ( ) and Min ( )



MAX function returns the largest value of a column in a table. For e.g. I have a Table employee with the fields id, name, salary and I want the maximum salary of an employee, I can use MAX function as shown
SELECT MAX(emp_salary) from employee;
Hence, if my column emp_salary has values 20,000, 22,000, 21,000; the output will be 22,000



MIN function returns the smallest value of a column in a table. For e.g. I have a Table employee with the fields id, name, salary and I want the minimun salary of an employee, I can use MIN function as shown
SELECT MIN(emp_salary) from employee;
Hence, if my column emp_salary has values 20,000, 22,000, 21,000; the output will be 20,000

Q:

Do you prefer to work on your own or as part of team?

Answer

Even if you like to work as a team or independent. Make sure you show interest in both, As most jobs require you to work both as part of team and independent.

In general, the idea is to say what you prefer without being negative about the thing you don’t.

Independently -
If you have done enough research on the job posting and mostly need to work independently then you can say something like “I prefer to work alone, but I find that occasionally working with a team feels creative and fun. Always felt, it is easy to solve problems being part of a team.

Work in a Team -
On the other hand, if your research says that your job requires working in a team then you can say something like "I like the dynamics of working in a team, but do like working independently when the assignment requires it.”
