How do you stay focused in a high pressure situation?

When conveying your ability to keep calm under pressure, consider that most people, when recalling stressful situations from their past, will revert to the emotional state of stress of that situation. Therefore, you can count on the assessment model to screen you for signs of stress and the confidence behind your statements. It will do this by analyzing the nuances of tone and choice of words, as well as your non-verbal cues for tells, such as your posture, body movements, facial expressions, and eye movements. So limit the examples you offer to moments where you acted decisively and drove success for your teams. Reflecting on your best moments, convey how well you managed your stress in those best of times. Focus on the pride of that moment and let your confidence and emotional maturity shine.

"I just try to stay focused on the tasks at hand. Stress is a part of life, but I typically think fast and consider myself a habitual problem solver. One foot in front of the other with no time to waste."
