Think of a situation that affected your emotions in a gut-wrenching way or one that made the wheels of your brain spin! Emotional examples are great because they show you care and are passionate about what you do. It is easier to talk about these challenges in a positive light too. Tell the interviewer a brief overview of your dilemma, explain why it was so challenging for you, and talk them through the steps you took to handle the situation. Also be sure to discuss what you learned from the case.
