When the unexpected occurs, how do you go about prioritizing multiple demands at the same time?

As they specify on EY's website, their ideal candidates keep their eye on the big picture, are capable of long-term strategic thinking, have a high attention to detail, and are resourceful and innovative. "A shift from focusing on the details to appreciating the bigger picture is imperative. Effective performance will be reliant on your ability to engage in long-term strategic thinking. Instead of fixating on the details of everyday procedural problems and find ways to sustain growth."

"I dealt with contingencies regularly and I am in my comfort zone when they occur. Communicating effectively is essential to navigating each circumstance. I just keep my eye on the big picture, communicate my thinking with other members of the team, integrate what they have to contribute to the situation, keep a keen eye on the details and on every ball in the air, utilize every resource at our disposal and seize every advantage. You just have to be ready to change course at a moment's notice."
