Tell me how you deal with rejection.

"I'm the type of person who perseveres, even when the going gets tough. Rather than letting difficulties defeat me, I rise to the challenge and enjoy working hard to tackle and conquer them. During college, I worked during the summer for a call center making hundreds of outbound calls a day. Many of my team members became burnt out and jaded over time after they were hung up on and cussed out so many times. While I didn't enjoy that part of the job either, I chose not to take those responses personally. Every day I tried to reach a target number of positive responses, and if I got a lot of hang-ups, I would increase the number of calls I made to ensure I hit my number. I rewarded myself at the end of the day with something I enjoyed if I hit my target."
