So it took you 15-20 minutes in an interview just to decide on the method by which you will begin to implement "a datetime solution"?

I'm hand waving the exact times, it was probably talking through how to filter by datetime a specific way for maybe 5 minutes followed by some discussion around these other ways to go about finding a solution. It was filtering by date starting from the beginning of the week. I searched around for a little bit since I didn't really know how to do this off the top of my head. Found a function that did what I wanted, then ran into type issues, more flailing around trying to get this working. I'll fully admit I didn't ace this.
