"I was working on a project with a strict deadline and just a week before it was due I was asked to help out with a presentation since one of my co-workers had fallen ill. At first, I was nervous about getting everything done. After I made adjustments to my schedule to fit everything in and gave myself some pep talks to get motivated, I was able to make it all work!"

"I was working in a call center when they automated our phone systems. There were several in our department who grew concerned about their job security. I told them not to worry, and that we'd all be fine. There were a lot of hiccups when they first launched the new phone systems. The system frustrated many of our customers by the time they got hold of a representative. This required a lot of patience on our end. Everything got up and running, and it made our jobs easier in the end and proved no threat to our livelihoods. It just took a while to get there."

Think of when there was a change in management, policy, responsibilities, or your schedule. Focus on how you responded to the change. No matter how messy or complicated, the only thing you could control in the situation was you, so talk about how you grew and how you stayed calm during the shift in your environment.
