The candidate should respond by telling the interviewer the most difficult story they have ever covered as a multimedia journalist, especially one that has been emotional. The candidate can respond well by using this example to show that they can still work under pressure, regardless of the topic they are covering. They also should respond by showing that they can learn from covering sometimes difficult events or stories, yet stay calm and unnerved while doing so. A good response would show that the candidate learned something from the challenging experience.

"The hardest story I have ever covered is when a college boy went missing and his body was found in a local river. Although this was a traumatic story to cover and it was difficult to interview his family, I learned how to communicate gently with a mourning family. If I ever covered a sad story like this again, I would know exactly how to tell of the loss without offending family and loved ones."
