How do you mitigate and manage stress?
The life of an auditor can be stressful with a lot of travel and deadlines. The interviewer wants to gain insight into how you react to stressful situations.
"Due to tight deadlines, travel and other demands of the senior auditor role, stress is inevitable. However, there are steps I take to help mitigate stress. First, I try to be as organized as possible. I am constantly prioritizing my workload to make sure time-sensitive tasks are handled before they are due. Next, I try to leave work at work. When not at work, I enjoy exercising, reading, and traveling. Being able to enjoy these activities makes me feel calmer and rejuvenated while at work."
