The hiring manager wants to find out whether you understand how pressure affects you and how you manage it. Be prepared to respond appropriately because the interviewer doesn't want to hear that you never get stressed. Everyone feels stress at one time or another at work. Employers look for candidates who can deal with a range of stressful situations, both personal and work-related.

To answer this question successfully, provide a specific example of how you've handled stress well in the past. Consider mentioning that a little stress can be a helpful motivator for you.

"I'm very sensitive to the nuances of group dynamics. If there's an unhealthy amount of stress within the team, I pick up on some of that stress too. So, I try to proactively listen to the concerns of the people around me, checking in frequently to see if they feel stressed. If they do, I help them with their workload so the collective stress of the team doesn't escalate."
