Stress in the healthcare industry can often be a regular part of the day-to-day work experience. Talk to the interviewers about the most stressful aspects of your career. Ensure that your answer does not include a factor that would make you appear unfit for the position. (i.e., a healthcare professional should not find caring for sick people the most stressful part of the job).

While you want to mention what part of your nursing career brings you the most stress, you don't want to dwell on it. Instead, mention the stressful part and then talk about how you minimize the stress so it does not consume you. If healthcare professionals do not have healthy ways to destress, it can lead to illness, injury, and job burnout.
