QUESTION 19 OF 27

When you suffer a setback, how does that emotionally affect you and your work?

Everyone handles the stress and disappointment of setbacks differently. Discuss with the interviewer how you typically cope with setbacks in the workplace.

"Experiencing a setback is always disappointing, and can be a bit disheartening, but I understand that it happens from time to time. If I experience a major setback, I will take a few moments to debrief with my manager and discuss what I could have done differently. Then, I move on!"

"I feel that most setbacks are directly related to missing a particular detail along the way. When I suffer a setback, my initial instinct is to go back through my project and find the weak link. This way, I can learn from the situation."
