Question: How do you choose a new hobby to try?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: Choosing a new hobby to try can be done by exploring personal interests and preferences, researching and trying out different activities, and seeking inspiration and guidance from others.

Reason: Hobbies are a way to pursue personal growth, creativity, and enjoyment outside of work and other obligations, and can also provide opportunities for social connection and learning.

Example: For instance, someone who enjoys art and crafts may try different techniques such as painting, pottery, or knitting, and may also join a community or class to learn from others and get feedback.

Alternative: However, some people may also choose a new hobby based on practical or professional goals, such as developing new skills, enhancing their resume, or building a portfolio.
