Explain how you re-prioritize your workload as needed. For instance, you could explain how you'd handle inheriting tasks amid other projects. Describe how mindful you are of urgency as you prioritize items in your workload.

"Some people say they prioritize their work by putting out fires. They focus on the raging fire, put that one out first, and move on to the next one. But I have a slightly different take on that. I like to imagine that every goal is the spark of an idea set in motion. Every goal generates work, and some are closer and burn more brightly than others. I like to think that I am harnessing the power of fire or ideas. Whichever burns the brightest and closest needs to be tended to first, then the next brightest. I don't like to say I am putting out fires, but rather harnessing the fire. I look at task management through this lens. I look at everything that needs tending to, evaluate which is burning brightest, and prioritize accordingly."
