Professional software engineer with 8yrs experience. My career has pushed me through numerous languages as well as a large amount of devops and data science. I have always been expected to pick up anything handed to me, figure it out, and make it work. This makes me a "full stack" engineer. However, all of the tools and languages have become one big blur in my mind. I have never been able to master a language inside-and-out and I can't write code from memory. I am ready to make a career move and need to prepare for job interviews. Wondering if anybody else has faced this problem and how you took it on.
Yes, the solution is to practice interview questions with the language of your choice. After awhile you will be able to memorize most of the language you need to interview.
Just practice for a bit, it will quickly become second nature
"I've always been expected to pick up anything handed to me" I'm handing you leetcode. Pick up any language and grind.
Any language if the price is right!
Here is a Canadian hair wax kit. Go
1. Pick one of java/c++/python 2. Solve 50 leetcode questions from various topics (this will ensure that stl/collections api is covered) That’s it. Most companies don’t bother about asking esoteric language related questions. If you can code an algorithm, you’ll do just fine.

I've been a web developer for 5+ years. The other day I was testing something out and was gonna make a quick static page with just HTML... realized I forgot how to make a HTML file completely LOL. I'm talking about all of that DOCTYPE meta charset etc. shit
