Guidance
Although this question is designed to induce stress in candidates and see how they respond, it is also a very fair question for investment banking.
Stay calm. Don't get defensive. And be prepared with a good story of how you've worked long hours or taken heavy course loads or pulled all-nighters to deliver projects on time.
Stay poised and demonstrate that you can handle stress not only with the content of your response but also with the way you deliver your answer.
Keep your response to under two minutes.
