We are looking for individuals who can effectively manage stress. Which aspects of work bring you the most stress, and how do you handle it?

"The part of work that brings me the most stress is when a project is running behind due to external factors or lack of hustle on my team's part. I like to be on time with internal deadlines to ensure that my clients are assisted properly. I've found that the best way to avoid this stress is to build a strong plan and foundation of communication from the beginning to ensure that we hold ourselves to the deadlines we've set for ourselves. I encourage an atmosphere of transparency and accountability on the team."

"I've found that dealing with stressed-out colleagues or clients brings me the most stress when working on a project. However, I've had a lot of practice doing so in previous positions and am confident in my ability to handle others' stress. I find that maintaining a calm demeanor has rubbed off on stressed-out colleagues or clients and we are able to continue working together effectively to get the task at hand done. Furthermore, I learned to use tight deadlines as motivation to work as efficiently as possible. When I am under pressure on the job, I focus on the task at hand and make sure not to get distracted."
