Behavioral interviewing techniques are supposed to be designed to induce stress well above and beyond nervousness when meeting someone new. The stress you feel from a deadline or a critical bug is also social stress. The deadline/bug are not able to care whether they are dealt with. The humans who expect you to deal with them are the source of the stress, whether they are your boss, management from other departments, or if you're running the show, your customers.
