Stress is often a regular part of the day-to-day work experience. Talk to the interviewer about which areas of your career are the most stressful. Ensure that your answer does not include a factor that would make you appear unfit for the position. (e.g., a healthcare professional should not find facing illness the most stressful part of the job). Then, describe how you manage your stress in the workplace.

"The area of my career that brings me the most stress is when we have done all we can, but a patient does not make it. Instead of letting that stressful event take over my emotions, I focus on my time with the patient and tell myself that I provided the best care possible."

"To be completely transparent, I probably bring myself the most stress because of my innate desire to be the best. I strive for perfection too often, which causes undue stress on myself. I manage this by focusing my energy on productive activities that are good for my career."
