Example of a good response to this question: When I was working in my previous job, I almost missed a deadline for a project I was working on. I was feeling overwhelmed and stressed due to the workload, and I realized I was falling behind when I was still far from completing the project. I quickly reacted by taking the initiative to work longer hours and to prioritize the task at hand. I asked for help from my colleagues, and we managed to finish the project on time. This experience taught me the importance of managing my time effectively and of asking for help when needed.
