Abstract

The article discusses the need for an objective assessment of SQL skills for employees and the shortcomings of current tests on the market. The authors developed and validated a new assessment that tests for insight and found it to be a good objective measure of skill level for the intended target population. The assessment offers a solution to mitigate risks associated with errors in SQL queries and provides an objective means to assess skills and knowledge. However, there is still some uncertainty in the interpretation of test results.
