Per their career site, the Canadian Red Cross stresses to potential applicants that the frontline work environment can be demanding and stressful. Ask yourself if you have the mental and physical health to handle the job and if you practice good diet, exercise, and sleeping habits. As you discuss your ability to manage stress on the job, these are great tactics to start with. Beyond that, make sure to talk about times when you faced a high workload or demanding tasks and how you used your organizational and communication skills to handle the tasks accurately and efficiently.

"As you can see from my resume, I've spent the majority of my professional career in crisis intervention and have counseled people in times of grief. There have been times when my emotions have come close to getting the best of me when situations were just so tough, and I'm cognizant of the fact that my personality brings me to those places. But my focus is on doing what is right for the person I'm counseling and my professional approach takes over. A couple of years ago, I worked with a group of families that were involved in an apartment fire and had lost everything. Several families were uninsured as well. I worked extra hours into the evenings and weekends to ensure they had the support they needed."
