How do you handle stress on the job?

"As a hotel concierge, I handle stress very well, and when you call my references, they will attest to this fact. When I am under pressure on the job, I focus on the task at hand and make sure not to get distracted. Staying on deadline is very helpful, and I will delegate when necessary to alleviate some stress."

A concierge will undoubtedly encounter stressful situations, especially during busy seasons if working for a hotel group. A personal concierge may encounter stress in the form of an unpredictable day or demanding client. Communicate your ability to overcome stress, remain focused, and produce results.

"I come into stress when a client is unsatisfied or when a well-laid out plan appears to be falling apart. To deal with this, I focus on the task at hand and remind myself than anything can be fixed with a smile and some concentration. I believe my ability to communicate effectively with clients, vendors, and service providers, during these moments helps reduce my stress in these situations and also reduces any stress the client may feel."
