Sample Solution:

SELECT w.emp_id,
       w.emp_name,
       w.job_name,
       w.manager_id,
       w.hire_date,
       w.salary,
       w.dep_id,
       m.emp_name
FROM employees w,
     employees m
WHERE w.manager_id = m.emp_id
  AND m.emp_name = 'JONAS';

Sample Output:

 emp_id | emp_name | job_name | manager_id | hire_date  | salary  | dep_id | emp_name
--------+----------+----------+------------+------------+---------+--------+----------
  67858 | SCARLET  | ANALYST  |      65646 | 1997-04-19 | 3100.00 |   2001 | JONAS
  69062 | FRANK    | ANALYST  |      65646 | 1991-12-03 | 3100.00 |   2001 | JONAS
(2 rows)

Explanation:

The said query in SQL that retrieves emp_id, emp_name, job_name, manager_id, hire_date, salary, dep_id, and the name of the employee's manager from the 'employees' table.

The query builds a self-join on the 'employees' table with itself based on the "manager_id" column in the 'employees' table, which corresponds to the "emp_id" column of the employee's manager using the "WHERE" clause and includes all the employees whose manager's name is "JONAS".

Go to:


PREV : Employees joined before a date but not graded 4.
NEXT : Salary of FRANK if his salary is equal to max_sal.
