Tell me about a time when you had to juggle multiple tasks at once. What did you do?

Those with a fundamental understanding of the concept should fill positions that include multitasking as part of their duties. Provide the best definition you can of the phrase, and think about citing a time in the past when you employed multitasking as an example. If you can't recall an instance when you effectively multi-tasked, use a hypothetical example that relates to the position you're interviewing for now.

The purpose of behavioral interview questions is to better understand your experience in various settings. The best way to properly highlight your earlier experience is to use the STAR method. The situation, Task, Action, and Result are abbreviated as "STAR," and your response would follow this format, describing the scenario, the task, the activity you performed, and then the outcome you were able to achieve.

Example Answer:

I can recall a moment when I had to balance several tasks at once. I had a project that needed all of my focus, but I also had to answer calls and emails right away. I came early every day so I could begin the project without interruption. I made sure to work on answering emails while I was receiving phone calls and saved the easy parts of the job for when I anticipated getting emails and calls. I was able to finish the assignment and my everyday responsibilities by doing this.
