"Stress is part of any demanding job, and I embrace it to the fullest. I take good care of myself and prioritize my workload to maintain a healthy balance in my stress levels. Also, just like I tell my clients, diet is everything! When I eat well and take care of my body, I feel best prepared to handle stress."

Of course, you have stress. We all do. But how we handle it says a lot about us. Do you find yourself confronting people when you are stressed out? Do you chain smoke out behind the building? If you happen to have a few bad habits, keep those to yourself. What you should portray with this answer is something positive. Do you like to run, do yoga, spend time with your family, read, or listen to music on your off time? Talk to the interviewer about your ability to manage pressure in the workplace.

"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."
