By then, people are trying to reconstruct months or years of projects, problems solved, responsibilities added, and results achieved from memory. In this episode, Julia Toothacre welcomes Orlando Haynes back to Control Your Career to discuss how professionals can build a more useful record of their work before they need it. Orlando draws on more than 20 years in talent acquisition and his experience creating Career Capital, a platform designed to help professionals document their work, identify impact, and translate that information into stronger career language. Julia also explains why she became a strategic advisor to Career Capital and makes clear in the episode that she is not paid for the recommendation or receiving commissions from the links she shares.  The conversation goes beyond tracking large, measurable wins. Julia and Orlando discuss how reflection can uncover evidence of problem-solving, strategic thinking, process improvement, collaboration, and professional growth that may otherwise disappear into the routine of everyday work. They also examine how stronger documentation can improve performance reviews, promotion discussions, r\u00e9sum\u00e9 development, and interview responses.
