The interviewer wants to determine if you can think quickly on your feet when faced with a high-pressure situation. Making an immediate decision is akin to taking a calculated risk. Consider whether you are a risk taker or risk-averse. Talk about how you approach evaluating risk. Provide an example that exhibits sound judgment and an educated calculated risk while thinking fast on your feet! Discuss the results of your course of action, what you learned, and how you've grown from your experience.
