As much as professionalism is the goal in the workplace, personal issues and external pressures can still impact the mood and performance of anyone every now and then. Sometimes it's important to take a moment from the work and check in with your colleagues. The interviewer wants to know what kind of teammate you will be. Emphasize your compassion and your ability to improve the workplace by responding appropriately to a struggling colleague.

"I would first ask if everything was alright. If the issue is stemming from a frustration in the workplace, I would see about helping them in the matter. If it was personal, particularly of a serious variety, I would suggest they take a few minutes to right themselves. But if they were still struggling, I would suggest they talk to a manager, because maybe they need some personal time."
