Submitted by: Muhammad

In this role, you will probably have a lot of people needing your assistance to get things completed, and that can get stressful. The interviewer wants to make sure that you know how to handle this type of environment. Think of what you do in your everyday life to make things more manageable.

“I can honestly say that I've gotten comfortable handling stress and high pressure situations. The thing that seems to work best for me is to list out everything that needs to be done, put it in order of importance and then cross out the task as soon as it's completed. I don't only do this at work, but also in my personal life. This sounds small, but something as simple as list-making really keeps me on task and focused.”
