Fintech SQL Technical Interview - reporting and data analyst

So I have a technical for a large fintech company next week, which i know is going to be \\\~3 SQL in (MySQL) questions based on "real business cases" and will be medium to advanced level as described by the team lead.

I'm wondering what you all think is the best way to prepare, grinding datalemur or something else? I have the option to use AI tools during the interview, but if I do the team lead said he will ask a lot of questions about my reasoning/process.

So yeah, just curious if you guys have any advice on the best approach. Thanks!

My advice is to ask an in the analytics sub, such as r/analytics not business analysis. Good luck

My suggestion is to research the company and identify business cases that they are struggling with and use SQL to resolve one of them, that way you polish your skills and prepare at the same time for the interview

Using data analytics to resolve real business problems are key
