Getting Events Between Two Dates using MySql - mysql

Question

I have this table: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!2/b4060/2
I then created two views as follow:
-- stack 1: hire
create view HS1H as
select a.* , min(a.`Effective_Date`)
from `Table1` a
left join `Table1` b on a.`Employee_ID` = b.`Employee_ID`
and a.`Effective_Date` > b.`Effective_Date`
where a.`Event_Type` = "1_Hire"
group by a.`Employee_ID`;
select * from `hs1h`;
-- stack 1: termination
create view HS1T as
select a.* , min(a.`Effective_Date`)
from `Table1` a
left join `Table1` b on a.`Employee_ID` = b.`Employee_ID`
and a.`Effective_Date` > b.`Effective_Date`
where a.`Event_Type` = "5_Term"
group by a.`Employee_ID`;
select * from `hs1t`;
I want to get the events that happen between first Hire date and first Term date. I used the qry below but returned no results:
select a.*
from `Table1` a
join `hs1h` b on a.`Employee_ID` = b.`Employee_ID`
join `hs1t` c on a.`Employee_ID` = c.`Employee_ID`
where a.`Effective_Date` between b.`Effective_Date` and c.`Effective_Date`;
I am not sure what went wrong. I was able run the following two qrys. One returned the events after first hire date, and the other returned the events before first term date. But when I combine them like the one above, it didn't work.
select a.*
from `Table1` a
join `hs1h` b on a.`Employee_ID` = b.`Employee_ID`
join `hs1t` c on a.`Employee_ID` = c.`Employee_ID`
where a.`Effective_Date` > b.`Effective_Date`;
select a.*
from `Table1` a
join `hs1h` b on a.`Employee_ID` = b.`Employee_ID`
join `hs1t` c on a.`Employee_ID` = c.`Employee_ID`
where a.`Effective_Date` < c.`Effective_Date`;

Answer 1

SELECT *
FROM table1
WHERE `effective date`
BETWEEN (select MIN(`effective date`) from `Table1` WHERE `event type` = '1_Hire')
AND
(select MIN(`effective date`) FROM table1 WHERE `event type` = '5_Term')
For the 2nd or 3rd 'hire', things get a little more complicated, but something like this should work...
SELECT a.*
FROM TH_Sample_Data a
JOIN (
SELECT x.*
, MIN(y.effective_date) end
, #i := #i+1 rank
FROM TH_Sample_Data x
JOIN TH_Sample_Data y
ON y.effective_date >= x.effective_date
AND y.event_type = '5_Term'
, (SELECT #i:=1) vars
WHERE x.event_type = '1_Hire'
GROUP
BY x.id
) b
ON a.effective_date BETWEEN b.effective_date and b.end
WHERE b.rank = 2;
