You can say something like “I was attending to personal matters” that still gives no information but doesn’t come off as rude to what could be an innocent question
It’s a chance for you to explain what you were doing. If you spent that time taking time off between jobs because a job fell through, you got laid off, you quit spontaneously, etc those are all very rational things that an employer may want to know.
It’s up there with innocent questions like “where did you work before here”, and “do you have reliable transportation “
Suits me. I wouldn’t want to work for anyone that nosy anyway.
