I have arbitrarily terrible episodic memory, especially so for professional stuff. If I don't have the commit history to check, I have trouble describing what I did in the last month in anything like a lucid level of detail.

I've always had trouble with the kind of behavioral interviews that are "Tell me about a time when . . ." since I can often recognize that I've been in relevant situations but can't for the life of me remember the details (even with time to prepare).

This honestly makes me more nervous about interviews than leetcode shenanigans. At least with those, I know how to improve.

(At work I rely on a combination of having the code in front of me, written notes, and whatever project management tools we have so it's not much of an issue, but most of that isn't available to me in an interview setting.)
