Looking for a new job

Most employers will want to know about your outside interests.

Not the best advice. Never put personal interests on your resume. These only disqualify you. They never get you a job - unless you are a world class bridge player or golfer, etc., and you know the boss is looking for a ringer for the company team or free lessons.

Most employers think you should spend 24x7 on their job, and want people who have no outside life (with the exception of those who need a certain percentage to be involved with charitable work to qualify for some tax break or another.)

As someone who had hired many, and reviewed hundreds of resumes for 4 companies, take my word for it.
