Paperback. Fourteen days of drills on the SQL a technical interview actually asks for, run through nothing but Python's own standard library. This is a drill manual, not a narrative course. Every listing was executed for real against a small SQLite database built up across the fourteen days, and every printed output block, including every EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN, is a paste from that run. Each chapter states a rule in as few words as it can, shows the rule working in a short numbered example with its captured output, and hands it straight back as problems. The vehicle is hiredb, one job-application database with four tables: applications, companies, contacts and a status-history log. Only Python 3.11 or later is required. sqlite3 ships in the standard library, so there is no server to install, no account to create, and no driver to configure. Every listing runs unchanged on Windows, macOS and Linux. The first week covers the ground a screen opens with: the table and the first query, SELECT and WHERE, every join type, GROUP BY and aggregate traps, subqueries and CTEs, window functions, and NULL and three-valued logic. The second week covers what separates a pass from a strong pass: indexes, reading a query plan, transactions and isolation, normalisation and schema design, calling SQL safely from Python, one full take-home task, and a closing chapter of forty timed questions, each worked and its own plan read. The findings are reported as they came out. A missing index turns a two-hundred-thousand-row filter from fourteen milliseconds into one tenth of one. A naive pay comparison shows remote roles earning nineteen points more than onsite ones, and the gap nearly disappears once role is held constant. Your 14-Day Path 1.

Fourteen days of drills on the SQL a technical interview actually asks for, run through nothing but Python's own standard library.
This is a drill manual, not a narrative course. Every listing was executed for real against a small SQLite database built up across the fourteen days, and every printed output block, including every EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN, is a paste from that run. Each chapter states a rule in as few words as it can, shows the rule working in a short numbered example with its captured output, and hands it straight back as problems. The vehicle is hiredb, one job-application database with four tables: applications, companies, contacts and a status-history log.
Only Python 3.11 or later is required. sqlite3 ships in the standard library, so there is no server to install, no account to create, and no driver to configure. Every listing runs unchanged on Windows, macOS and Linux.
The first week covers the ground a screen opens with: the table and the first query, SELECT and WHERE, every join type, GROUP BY and aggregate traps, subqueries and CTEs, window functions, and NULL and three-valued logic. The second week covers what separates a pass from a strong pass: indexes, reading a query plan, transactions and isolation, normalisation and schema design, calling SQL safely from Python, one full take-home task, and a closing chapter of forty timed questions, each worked and its own plan read.
The findings are reported as they came out. A missing index turns a two-hundred-thousand-row filter from fourteen milliseconds into one tenth of one. A naive pay comparison shows remote roles earning nineteen points more than onsite ones, and the gap nearly disappears once role is held constant.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a CitiRetail, Stevenage, United Kingdom, sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.
