You may say that you thrive under certain types of pressure. Give an example that relates to the type of position applied for. Mention pressures you face on the daily, such as dealing with deadlines on a regular basis.

Try not to use an example where you created the pressure yourself, by waiting too long tostart something, or by handling a task irresponsibly at the beginning.

I stay calm and give time to me to get the problem domain. Take a deep breadth and think about the solution for the problem by prioritising my work accordingly which helps me. Discussing with teammates gives different views to get the work done on time with 100% quality.
