Many Commercial Brokers earn money based on commission, which means that losing a client, or a prominent real estate deal, can be extra painful when it happens. The interviewer would like to know how you react when it comes to significant setbacks. Everyone handles stress and disappointment differently, but it's vital that you show the interviewer your ability to pick yourself back up and try again. Point out how your setbacks do not affect others in your office, and that any losses you face fuel you to work harder next time.
