引用外部查询/子查询的最佳方式?

I've came up with this example that shows up the kind of nested querys that I want to solve. In here I'm trying to get the name and emails of users that are working at night and have a matching job rank for an available job:

tables -----------> fields
table_users      -> [user_id, name, email, rank, ...]
table_users_jobs -> [user_id, job_id, period, ....]
table_jobs       -> [job_id, status, rank, ...]


-- sql calling code -> $rank = "t1.rank"; get_users_info_by_rank($rank);
-- maybe using: SET @rank = NULL; SELECT @rank := $rank, t1.name, ...
   SELECT t1.name, t1.email
   FROM table_users as t1
   WHERE t1.user_id IN (
       SELECT t2.user_id
       FROM table_users_jobs as t2
       WHERE t2.period = 'night' AND
         t2.job_id IN (
--         avaiable jobs to that rank -> get_job_ranks_sql($rank);
           SELECT t3.job_id 
           FROM table_jobs as t3
--         maybe using: t3.rank = @rank
           WHERE t3.rank = t1.rank AND
            t3.status = 'avaiable_position')
       )

我想我可以避免第三级选择问题.尽管如此，关键是我正在尝试重用 sql 代码，例如为我提供所选职级的 job_id 的函数:

  function get_job_ranks_sql($rank){
    //probably 't3' will be renamed for something more unique
    return 'SELECT t3.job_id 
            FROM table_jobs as t3
            WHERE t3.rank = '.$rank.' AND
            t3.status = "available_position")';
  }

SELECT t1.name, t1.email, t3.job_id
FROM table_users t1
LEFT JOIN table_users_job t2
ON t1.user_id = t2.user_id
LEFT JOIN table_jobs t3
ON t3.job_id = t2.job_id
WHERE t2.period = 'night
AND t3.status = 'available_position'
