"In my current role, I'm able to handle a very large workload with my ability to stay organized on the job. If you could take a tour of my office, you'd see that I maintain a neat and clean desk with a very organized file cabinet of my current workload. If I need to shift gears and move on to work with another client, I can easily access information on the fly and keep moving. I also utilize my Outlook calendar to set deadline reminders to stay on track of closing deadlines and paperwork requirements and the tasks function within the program helps me stay right on track with all of my clients I am working with at a given time."

In my previous job, there were always several projects working on at the time in our team. Everyone had to be multitasking, and everyone had stayed clean and well organized. I have several tips for myself to stay well organized. The first is trying to anticipate the work for the next several weeks so that I can be well prepared. I do this by using my own experiences and by asking my colleagues when I first arrived there. Then I always priorities my tasks to make sure I put enough effort into each of them according to their importance so that I won't waste too much time on less critical tasks and run out of time on the most important ones. I also use tools like Outlook calendar and sticky notes to remind me of all the appointments and deadlines.
Chad's Feedback
Good answer. It sounds like your previous role required a high level of organization, and you developed excellent time management skills. These are productive ways to manage a high workload, and the interviewer will be pleased to hear you have several strategies in place. If you worked directly with clients in the past, include a sentence or two on how you met their expectations, or how you were able to ensure their satisfaction.
