This question is about your organizational and time management skills as they pertain to the position at this company and in your field. Prioritizing tasks based on the big picture instead of short-term goals, their level of importance, and their urgency is a skill. This question is your opportunity to share your techniques for staying organized in high-pressure situations and how you produce error-free, high-quality work within given timeframes with attention to detail. Emphasize your resourcefulness, flexibility, and adaptability in an ever-changing and demanding environment. Describe your systems approach and how you adapt your work style based on the situation. If coworkers have borrowed and adapted aspects of your work style into their style, be sure to focus on that as well.

"Last month, I had a client who made several additional and last-minute changes to our project. Despite the changes, our deadline remained the same. Our project lead was becoming increasingly stressed that we would not meet our deadline, so I agreed to stay late three nights that week to ensure we met all expectations."

"I am always diligent when it comes to deadlines. However, I remember having an abnormally large order from a regular client once. I was a little stressed about making it perfect, but I was confident, and we met our deadline with no issue."
