Job Interview Question & Answer: What Do You Do in Your Spare Time? |

How to Answer the Question:
This may be a good time to discuss self-improvement and community service projects. Talk about your hobbies and interests only if these would appear innocent to a future employer. Discuss spending time with loved ones or home improvement projects, as most employers relate to these activities. Keep your answer to this short and as professional as possible during the hiring process.
Do not discuss anything appearing detrimental to your work performance. If you must, only mention personal information you are comfortable with your employer knowing. Don’t talk about the hours you spend with online video games, the constant updates to your online social networking pages, or the clubs you attend every night. During a job interview, don’t let the interviewer know about hobbies employers may find damaging to productivity.
