The interviewer wants to see what you do as a stress release and what you consider is fun. They are trying to gain more insight into the activities you participate in away from work. It is important in the health profession to make time for yourself and let the work pressures slip away. Be sure that your activities align with the company's values and that they cannot be construed as unethical or immoral, such as visiting strip clubs or bar-hopping.

"In my free time, I like to spend time outdoors. Working in an office all week makes me long for fresh air. I like all water activities, such as kayaking and snorkeling, and also enjoy mountain biking, trail running, and camping with my family. During inclement weather, I play games with my kids and have recently started painting with watercolors. I find it's a nice balance to reduce stress."
