How do you handle stress?
Answers
When people are stressed, they often hold a lot of the stress in their face. So laughs or smiles can help relieve some of that tension and improve the situation. Get social support. Call a friend, send an email. When you share your concerns or feelings with another person, it does help relieve stress.
your first response might be to laugh bitterly, open your arms up wide and respond with “You tell me! I’m here, aren’t I?”
Of course, you’re smarter than that and while the above scenario is so tempting, there are much better ways to answer this question, and I guarantee that none of them use sarcasm.
But before we get to how to answer the question, we need to look at why the interviewer is asking it in the first place.
While it might feel as though this question is an attempt by the interviewer to play on your already frazzled nerves, there’s a very good reason they’re asking you how you handle stress.
Work is stressful and regardless of what your job is, at some point in everyone’s life, a little stress (or a lot, depending) is going to come your way and an employer wants to know if you’re the kind of person who is going to be able to handle that stress professionally, or if you’re going to end up crumbling like a stale cookie.
