I will answer the question as though it were stated this way: "How do you demonstate an ability to effectively mentor a testing staff and manage your own work against competing priorities and deadlines?"  If this is what was meant, then this is an enlightened question.

The answer to this question varies between Test Manager and Test Lead,
but I attempt to accomplish this in the following ways:

1) Inform management that you will be spending time throughout your
day to mentor staff members.  Offer compelling reasons why they should allow you to do this.  

2) Maintain a daily/weekly/monthly planner and carry it with you at
all times. 

3) Prioritize all of the tasks you need to accomplish throughout the
day and be sure to address higher priority tasks before lower priority tasks.

4) Follow through on your commitment to mentor your staff members. 
Make this a high priority task.

5) Find ways to become more efficient and still remain effective when
handling the important tasks required to meet deadlines.

6) Delegate some of your responsibilities to team members who have the
time and capacity to perform them.  Make this part of your mentoring program.
