When you suffer a setback, how does that emotionally affect you and your work?
Everyone handles the stress and disappointment of setbacks differently. Discuss with the interviewer how you typically cope with delays in the workplace.
"Experiencing a setback is always disappointing, and can be a bit disheartening, but I understand that it happens from time to time. If I experience a major setback, I will take a few moments to debrief with my manager and discuss what I could have done differently. Then, I move on!"

Setbacks do not affect me emotionally, for I take an objective view towards such situations. I am also a pragmatic thinker, determined, and focused on a project to see it through completion. I understand disappointment is typical and normal and will ask for help from others and change my approach. Work on my weaknesses and discuss what can be done better.
