- Life is stressful. I was walking down the street last April when i encountered a fox biting a woman leg, that woman just so happened to be Myleene Klass. By-stander apathy was in full flow and as i was wearing the golden beret the duty of helping the woman fell to me. The press were already starting to arrive in their truck loads and i wasn't sure what to do. I do not like the woman. I stood still for 46 minutes exactly while a riot formed around me. Eventually a man wearing a blue beret came over and shook the fox off. As you will know the blue beret can only be used in crisp related accidents so he was chased out of town. I was then jeered at while the paparazzi took pictures of me. The next morning the front page headlines read 'Is this the most pointless woman on Earth?'.
- You have to just face the situation and solve it. no matter how hard it is, the only way to relieve stress is to solve it,
- Usually hanging out with my friends,watching movies or engaging in different kind of activities or sports...having a vacation.
- They're not asking about the situation. They're asking about how YOU handle stress.
- Things they DON'T want to hear: - You freaked out. - You got everyone around you upset. - You caused more work for your supervisor. - You caused the company to lose money or production time. - You smoked three cigarettes and then ate an entire Pizza.
- Things they DO want to hear: - You remained calm. - You helped others to remain calm. - You contacted the appropriate supervisors. - You came up with a solution and either fixed it or assisted the supervisor. - You went to the gym and worked out for an extra 1/2 hour. - You thought of how this situation could be avoided in the future. - If nothing else it showed you how to best handle the situation in the future.

∙ 12y agoSuch questions are fairly typical of those you will be presented with when applying for a job
As with most things, it is all about preparation. If you fail to prepare then be prepared to fail. There are many 'standard' questions. There are no standard answers as most are asking about you personally. Because of that no one but yourself can answer many of the questions you will be asked. Think about such questions in advance and have your answers ready. There are many sources of the type of questions you may be presented with. The internet and your local library being the main ones. Be positive; do not repeat what you have read in books or on the Internet. By all means read sample answers but do not repeat them verbatim. The person interviewing you will have read all those answers too.
There is more to having a successful job interview than just answering the questions asked. Many would say much more. First impressions count for far more than many realise.
Dress for the part. Be punctual and polite. Listen to what is being said. Answer only the question asked. (Don't ramble)

For example, you could say "Working under pressure to get the job done does not bother me because I work over if I have to in order to get the job done. Handling stressful situations is a bit different and varies, but the first thing I do is take time to analyze the situation and decide on what can be done to ease the stress. I then act on my decision.
