How well you manage your time will offer insights into how effective you'll be at your job. Not preparing for your morning can cause you to be late to work. Not managing your workflow or projects can cause missed deadlines, resulting in taking your work home with you. If you feel overwhelmed at work because of poor time management, you might bring more stress home from work, not sleep well, and continue in a cycle of underperformance. These are all considerations when determining if you are a good fit for the position.

"I'm all about working smarter, not harder. I'm a time management freak. By focusing on my time management, I ensure both my personal and work life remain balanced. However, when I need to go above and beyond, I will take work home, but only when it makes sense. In this regard, I'll jump at the opportunity, as rare as it is."
