Help with a job interview question

[Kitch88]

Hi all,

I recently graduated and have finally got to within reaching distance of my first proper job after applying like mad since June.

Got through the 1st round of interviews fine, and was told by the recruitment agency bloke (who funnily enough, used to work for the company im applying for) that I was their favourite candidate.

All good news so far, he then told me about what kinds of things they're going to ask for during the 2nd and final interview on Monday, one is that they want to make sure I can meet deadlines. I was asked if I had any examples on the top of my head to work from, and I just mentioned uni and meeting deadlines with reports/dissertation etc, but he said work related ones would be far more useful if I could think of any.

The problem is, before this job, all I've ever had was a part-time bar job whilst I was at 6th form, so have no real work-related experience meeting deadlines, I know I can, but just wondering if anyone can advise on how best to go about this question when I'm asked?

Cheers all.
