How do you prioritise when everything is urgent?

Explain your criteria: deadline, blocking others, business impact and effort, then confirm the order with the person who owns the work rather than guessing.

Example

"I list the tasks, mark which ones block other people, and confirm with my lead. In my internship I paused a report to fix a login bug because 40 users were blocked, and the report went out the next morning."
