When answering this question, emphasize your ability to stay calm and think clearly in high-pressure situations. Provide a specific example of a time when you successfully managed an unexpected change or emergency during an adventure trip. Outline the steps you took to address the situation, including assessing the problem, prioritizing safety, communicating effectively with the group, and finding a solution. Highlight any skills or experiences that are particularly relevant to the role, such as first aid training, navigation skills, or previous experience in similar situations.
Example:
"During a hiking trip in the mountains, we encountered an unexpected snowstorm. I quickly assessed the situation and determined that it was unsafe to continue on our planned route. I gathered the group and communicated the change in plans, ensuring everyone understood the importance of staying together and keeping warm. I used my navigation skills to find an alternative route to a nearby shelter and kept the group motivated and calm throughout the journey. My first aid training also came in handy when one of the group members showed signs of hypothermia, and I was able to provide the necessary care until we reached safety."
