I will speak about the technical first step where I needed solving questions in Python (half an hour) and in Sql(half an hour).
I succeeded solving 2 SQL questions and 1 in Python.
Sql Part:
I was given 5 tables presented a library. But the main 2 and only tables I needed to use in the following questions were: copies and checkouts.
copies table : book_id,copy_id,condition.
checkouts table: copy_id,checkout_date,returned_date,renwed_count.
First Q:
Calculate the total number of books their condition is good and havent returned yet (it should be called "numbers_of_returned_books"). Take this total and return the books' precentage that their renewed > 2 (this should be called "pct_renewed").
The output should be - numbers_of_returned_books and pct_renewed.
Second Q:
They defined a value - lifetime_value. This value is calculated as : numbers of days since the day they were taken and returned. I was asked to bring the book ids their lifetime_value in top 3 books and pay attention their number of copies <=10 and their returned_Date is not null.
Python Part:
You are given a books list which cotains tuples. Each book in books list contains the book name and its score. For example:
list books = [("Agr",3),("bsa",2),("Agr",4),("mas",7)]
You need to return the highest score sum were given to the top 3 books in the list. You are not allowed sum the score number for a book twice.
Recruiter reached out on LinkedIn, followed by 1 technical interview, then 3 more rounds of technical interviews and 1 round of behavior questions interview. All technical interviews are sql and python questions, which starts with the easiest and getting harder and harder.

Very stressing, some interviewers were nice, some were like robots, everything about the process makes you feel like your in a chase, not a pleasant experience.
If working for the company is like that that's a bad place to work at.
