"I handle stress very well on the job, and when you call my references, they will attest to this fact. When I am under pressure on the job, I focus on the task at hand and make sure not to get distracted. Staying on a deadline is very helpful, and I will delegate when necessary to alleviate some stress. Handling stress often comes down to communication and staying organized, two of my strengths."

Discuss how you thrive, even during the most stressful times. Keep your answer brief and provide an example of a time you took a stressful time or situation on the job head-on with successful results. Tell the interviewer that you remain focused on your work and deadlines no matter how stressful things get in a manner that is healthy for yourself.
