Tell me about the last time you realized you'd taken on too many responsibilities.

It is common when wanting to develop yourself professionally and being committed to contributing to the team, to at least once take on more responsibilities than you can manage in a given period. This question aims at determining how far along your professional development is. Your answer will provide insights into your ambition and your time management skills. As Monica Keaney, IKEA's Sustainability manager, says, "The main thing is not to bite off more than you can chew. Whether you want to do something differently at home or in your community, the key is to start small... but stay ambitious."
