Hi I have these two ways

select ename
  from emp
minus
select ename from emp where empno in (select mgr from emp);

select *
  from emp ee
 where not exists (select 1 from emp e where ee.empno = e.mgr) order by ename 

But still my interviewer  is asked for another alternate

Hi

I don't recall at this point of time I feel there are two other ways you should be able to achieve

1. Explore self join
2. Explore connect by clause and level option

You can simplify your first query to:
SELECT ename FROM emp 
WHERE empno IN (SELECT empno FROM emp MINUS SELECT mgr FROM emp)


About your second query:
SELECT ename FROM emp e
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT NULL FROM emp m WHERE e.empno = m.mgr)

when there is no NULL, NOT EXISTS can be changed to NOT IN (note the use of NVL as MGR column can be NULL, remove it to see what happens):
SELECT ename FROM emp WHERE empno NOT IN (SELECT NVL(mgr,0) FROM emp)


You can use an OUTER JOIN:
SELECT e.ename 
FrOM emp e LEFT OUTER JOIN emp m ON e.empno = m.mgr
WHERE m.mgr IS NULL

Hi

I think level might not be required the below will get the employee_id who is not a manager(No reportees) and he might be reporting to someone

connect hr/hr( Tried on oracle supplied demo table employees)

select employee_id,manager_id from Employees
where CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1
start with manager_id is null
connect by prior employee_id = manager_id

Oh yes, a complex way to come to it. Smile

With EMP table used above, it is:
SELECT ename FROM emp
WHERE connect_by_isleaf = 1
CONNECT BY prior empno = mgr
START WITH mgr IS NULL
