Every profession has some stress that comes with the job. Working as an Activities Assistant can be stressful when coming up with new ideas, when a resident does not engage or participate, or if you and the Activities Director do not get along. Whatever the reason, the interviewer wants to hear how you handle stress and remain calm in stressful situations.

"I handle stress very well. I hadn't experienced much stress growing up, but when I went to my first year of college, I learned the meaning of stress! I had a full class load and was working part-time. I had to learn to become very organized and manage my time well. I find that being organized decreases my stress and allows me to remain calm in any stressful event I encounter."
