Dealing with the tension between coworkers can be draining, especially if you work in a high-stress work environment. When you're asked a question about dealing with conflict or overcoming a challenge, think of an example first. Having a concrete situation to draw from will help you think through the steps you take to deal with conflict. Use an example that demonstrates your care and compassion when a conflict arises.

"One of my coworkers had a bad attitude and kept snapping at people on the team one day. It's important for us to work together at all times, even if one of us is having a bad day. I pulled him aside and asked what was going on. I listened and comforted him and then gave him a pep talk. I told him we needed him on the team and that he was doing a great job. The rest of the day went much more smoothly."
