The interviewer wants to be assured that you can handle the workload required of you in this position and that you will not become overwhelmed if/when workloads unexpectedly increase. When workloads increase, stress levels do too. How do you react?

"When I have a large workload on my plate, I do not stress over the tasks that are in front of me. Rather, I make a simple plan of which tasks are a high priority and which tasks are a lower priority. The higher priority tasks, I complete first. Through this system, I can focus on my tasks individually, rather than stressing out about the multitude of tasks ahead of me. I also love the satisfaction of being able to cross things off my list!"

First of all, I see that as a challenge which is healthy. I like to push myself to reach my full potential. When I have a lot on my plate, I would review my to-do list and pick the most difficult one first. I find that is a great way to give me a confidence boost to finish the rest of the tasks. For me personally, I don't really mind working late since I need to make sure that I get every task done right.
Rachelle's Feedback
It's awesome that you see challenges as a positive thing. Your interviewer should be happy to hear this :) If you have a story-based example of a time when you met the challenge of a high workload, this is a great opportunity to give a story-based example, just like you did in question #10.
