MySQL Date and Time Exercises: Query to get the firstname, lastname who joined in the month of June

MySQL Date Time: Exercise-15 with Solution

Write a MySQL query to get the firstname, lastname who joined in the month of June.

Sample table: employees

Code:

-- This SQL query retrieves the first name and last name of employees hired in June.

SELECT 
first_name, -- Selecting the 'first_name' column from the 'employees' table.
last_name -- Selecting the 'last_name' column from the 'employees' table.
FROM 
employees -- Specifying the 'employees' table.
WHERE 
MONTH(HIRE_DATE) =  6; -- Filtering the rows to include only those where the hire date month is June.

Explanation:

• This SQL query selects the first name and last name of employees from the 'employees' table.
• The WHERE clause filters the result set to include only records where the hire date month is June.
• The MONTH() function extracts the month part from the HIRE_DATE column, and it is compared to 6, which represents June.
