Q:

MySQL where all in

I have five tables in my database, users, jobs, qualifications, job_qualifications and users_qualification
I need to select all the staff that are qualified to carry out a particular job.   It would be useful if there was a statement such as ALL IN so for example the query would be
SELECT user_id
FROM users_qualification
WHERE qualification_id ALL IN 
    (
        SELECT qualification_id 
        FROM job_qualifications 
        WHERE jobs_id = 1
    )

A:

If you know the number of qualifications that are required for the job, you can write this query:
SELECT uq.user_id
FROM users_qualification uq JOIN job_qualifications jq
    ON uq.qualification_id = jq.qualification_id
WHERE jq.jobs_id = 1
GROUP BY uq.user_id
HAVING COUNT(*) = {# of qualifications}

To find the number of qualifications, run:
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM job_qualifications
WHERE jq.jobs_id = 1
