Do you have any prior performance assessment paperwork? Annual merit review info? Did you save any emails from that period of time (I send myself things I need to remember to my home email all the time - or that I want to keep track of)? Sometimes if you begin a random word association starting from a project you do remember, that will stimulate your brain to start digging! I discovered a very good site http://www.rileyguide.com/interview.html that gives you a 360 view of every thing you should be prepared for when you interview. I get asked for advice alot (I am a recruiting director) and I think this is the best site because lots of advice for multiple sources is listed here. I have no affiliation with the site - just think it's good info. Tell NH Mom of 3 I wish her good luck on her job search!
