What do you like to do in your free time?
The interviewer asks this question to see what interests you and if you have healthy avenues to relieve stress. They want to hear what hobbies and activities you enjoy and know that you spend time away from work and school destressing from the daily pressures you face.
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 interns and employees based on your interests.
Since you are applying for an internship, you want to put your best foot forward. You want to avoid describing interests that may seem unprofessional or unhealthy to the interviewer. Some examples of what to avoid are saying you enjoy spending your free time lying around watching movies, playing video games, or going clubbing with your friends. While those activities are perfectly harmless and a great way to unwind, the interviewer may view them as unhealthy or unprofessional for a Walgreens Intern.
"In my free time, I enjoy activities that keep me in shape. My favorite activities are kayaking, trail running, and riding mountain bikes. When the weather is bad, and I cannot do those activities, I enjoy listening to music, trying new recipes, and reading historical novels."
