Following is a list of questions designed to provide information relating to an individual’s stability of performance under pressure. These questions are not designed to rate a person’s stress level. They are designed to give the interviewer an idea of how the applicant has reacted to past stressful situations.
1. What pressures do you feel in your job? How do you deal with them?
2. Describe the highest pressure situations you have been under recently. How did you cope with them?
3. Tell me how you maintain constant performance while under time and work load pressures.
4. Describe times in the past year when you have been most upset with yourself at work.
5. Describe times in the past year when you have been most upset with someone else at work.
6. Describe the last time a person at work (customer, co-worker, boss) became irritated or lost his/her temper. What did they do? How did you respond? What was the outcome?
7. Tell me about some situations in which you became frustrated or impatient when dealing with (customers, co-workers, boss). What did you do?
8. In your career, what has been your greatest disappointment?
9. We’ve all lost our temper at one time or another. Describe for me the last time you lost your temper. What had occurred? How did you respond?
10. Give me an example of when your ideas were strongly opposed by a co-worker or supervisor. What was the situation? What was your reaction? What was the result?
