Sample Solution:

-- Selecting all columns (*) from the 'employees' table
SELECT * 
	
-- Filtering rows from the 'employees' table based on the condition that the 'employee_id' is not in the result set of a subquery
FROM employees 

-- Subquery to find 'employee_id' values where there is no corresponding entry in the 'job_history' table
WHERE employee_id NOT IN 
       (SELECT employee_id 
		FROM job_history);

Sample Output:

employee_id	first_name	last_name	email	phone_number	hire_date	job_id	salary	commission_pct	manager_id	department_id

Code Explanation:

The said query in SQL that selects all the rows from the 'employees' table where the "employee_id" does not match any of the values returned by the subquery. A subquery is used to select the values from the "job_history" table corresponding to employee_id values. Therefore, the query will return all employees who do not have a record in the "job_history" table when it is performed.

Visual Presentation:

SQL Subqueries Exercises: Display all the information of those employees who did not have any job in the past.

Alternative Solutions:

Using a Left Join:


SELECT e.*
FROM employees e
LEFT JOIN job_history jh ON e.employee_id = jh.employee_id
WHERE jh.employee_id IS NULL;

Using NOT EXISTS:


SELECT e.*
FROM employees e
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
    FROM job_history jh
    WHERE jh.employee_id = e.employee_id
);

Using a LEFT JOIN with NULL Check:


SELECT e.*
FROM employees e
LEFT JOIN job_history jh ON e.employee_id = jh.employee_id
WHERE jh.employee_id IS NULL;
