second highest salary department wise query would be this
select e.dept_id,e.salary,e.emp_name,e.rank from (select
dept_id,emp_name,salary,dense_rank() over (partition by
dept_id order by salary desc nulls last) rank
from employee)e
where e.rank = 2

SELECT * FROM 'emp` WHERE salary < ( SELECT max( salary
)FROM emp ) ORDER BY salary DESC LIMIT 1
This is Mysql syntax, if you use Oracle just remove LIMIT 1
and put it ROWNUM=1;
