The interviewer wants to be assured that you can handle the workload required of you in this position and that you will not become overwhelmed if/when workloads unexpectedly increase.

"When I have a large workload on my plate, I have found that it is best to remain calm and not panic. If I am able, I make a simple plan of which tasks are a high priority and which tasks are a lower priority. The higher priority tasks, I complete first. Through this system, I can focus on my tasks individually, rather than become stressed out by the multitude of tasks ahead of me."
