SQL Server test

The SQL Server test evaluates a candidate's proficiency in using Microsoft SQL Server, a relational database management system (RDBMS) widely used for managing and querying large datasets. The test covers core SQL operations such as SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and advanced techniques like JOINs, subqueries, and transaction management.

Candidates are assessed on their ability to write efficient queries, manipulate data, and perform complex aggregations to derive valuable insights. A key focus is on query optimization, especially when working with large databases, ensuring candidates can improve performance while maintaining accuracy.

The test also evaluates knowledge of SQL Server-specific features such as indexing, stored procedures, and functions, allowing candidates to fully leverage the platform's capabilities. Additionally, it covers database administration tasks, including backup management, ensuring data integrity, and configuring security settings. Candidates will also need to demonstrate a solid understanding of relational database design, normalization, and best practices for structuring databases for scalability and performance. The test may include real-world scenarios that challenge candidates to manage databases, execute advanced queries, and implement solutions within the SQL Server environment.
