Bring written notes to your interview with specific examples of past work. The speaker recommends this especially for senior technical roles, citing a concrete example like migrating an Angular codebase to React. Having these details on hand prevents blanking out on achievements and helps you tell a clearer story.

Anybody in here do an interview, just black out? You're like, oh gosh, I've done it. I've done it. It's awful. Right? While I feel like I'm really, really good at reciting my career, I still can't remember everything. When you go into an interview, jot some things down as it relates to the job. If you're interviewing for a senior tech lead, well, you need to migrate an Angular codebase to React, and you've done that before. Give me specifics and walk into the interview with that written down. You will most likely black out a little bit.
