It is common to be overloaded with work at times. Describe how you organize your workload to keep from becoming overwhelmed and how you would delegate or ask for help if needed. The interviewer wants to see how you manage a heavy workload and how you prioritize the work that needs to be done.

"There are a few times I have been overloaded with work. When that happens, I take a moment to make a list and prioritize what needs to be done first and what can wait for later. If my workload is heavy and needs to be completed the same day, I would ask for any available help or stay late to complete my projects."
