How to learn SQL for data science interview (the minimize effort maximize outcome way)This is a step by step guide for how I learned SQL for my FANG data science interview. I had never touched SQL before and only had 2 weeks to prepare for my interview. So I made a scientifically-backed study plan to learn SQL most efficiently with the least amount of time and effort. By the end of the 11 days, I felt super confident and prepared. I went on to pass my FANG data science interviews and got the job!My motto: Minimize effort and maximize outcome!!Btw apologies about audio quality from about 2 - 3.5 min mark.
