The interviewer asks this question to see what interests you and if you have healthy avenues to decompress. They want to hear what hobbies and activities you enjoy and know that you spend time away from work destressing from the pressures of your internship.

Focus on describing three or four activities you enjoy. The interviewer wants to see what you are interested in and determine how well you will get along with other team members based on your interests.

Choose your activities and interests wisely when responding to this question. You want to avoid describing activities that the interviewer might deem unprofessional for a CVS Pharmacy Intern. While certain activities might seem harmless, think about how the interviewer might respond. For example, you might enjoy lying around playing video games all day on your days off. While that is a harmless way to decompress and take your mind off work, the interviewer might feel it is childish or a waste of time.

"On my days off, I like going for day trips with my husband, trying new restaurants, and watching old movies. These activities take my mind off work and school and rejuvenate me."
