"As I am just starting my career as a nutritionist, I believe that this learning curve will bring me some stress, to begin with. Also, coming across new clients with situations that I have not researched fully yet. I look forward to this opportunity to learn and am prepared to put in the extra hours it will take to establish myself here."

"To be honest, I probably bring myself the most stress because of my drive and desire to be the best I can be. I manage this by focusing my energy on productive activities that are good for my career."

As a medical professional you know the importance of taking care of yourself. This includes not over stressing or overworking yourself. When you feel like your job is pulling you in a million directions then you need to step back, re-evaluate and re-attack.
On those challenging days do you take some time to yourself to relax and do yoga? Do you spend extra time with your kids when you get home? However you choose to decompress on those challenging days be sure to let the interviewer know that it happens, you deal with it and you don't let it get you down. Ensure that your answer does not include a factor that would make you appear unfit for the position. (IE: a bus driver should not find driving to be the most stressful part of the job).

"The part of my career that brings me the most stress is when the patient schedule is running behind due to lack of hustle on my team's part. I like to be on time with my schedule to ensure that my clients are properly assisted and not left waiting."
