"Multitasking is an art I have perfected myself during my schooling and am ready to bring to work here at Jetstar Airways. It has always started with my ability to stay organized and set deadlines. Once I know when things are due, I work on the tightest deadlines first. Throughout my day, I leave time open for work on long-term things and to have room for other important things that come up. I'm confident that these skills will be important in this job, where I will always prioritize the passenger in front of me and their needs first."

"If I have more than one customer who needs me in my current job, I will page for assistance so that nobody is left waiting. It's essential to have team members you can rely on to step in when you become too busy, and communication here is essential. If I have tasks that include data entry that can wait until later, I keep them neatly organized and work on them when I have some downtime."

As you answer this question, you ideally need to assure the interviewer that you can be diligent when assessing your priorities on the job at Jetstar. How you go about doing this should include discussing your prior work. Some things to highlight are your ability to prioritize what is most urgent first and what impacts the frontline customer and the service they receive.

I mainly determine priorities based on the project size and time to complete the task. I don't like to keep people waiting for me so if, for example, I have two customers wanting me at the same time, I will page another employee to help me serve so every customer can get their needs met as soon as possible.

Jaymie's Feedback
To be successful, you will have to be able to prioritize tasks and be flexible when other issues or tasks pop up. Your strategy is a good one to share with the interviewer. Consider also including communication skills as you work closely with your supervisor to identify priorities, provide status updates, and ask for help when needed.
