Hobbies and Interests in your CV: Very important.

In looking at your CV, especially towards the end, an employer’s eyes easily stray to the hobbies section. What do they expect to see? Normally, people will list hobbies that may not attract the attention of the employer. This is a very dangerous approach because it can knock you out of the shortlisted group. Be careful what to write in this section.

Hobbies and interests are among the optional aspects of the how to write a CV (Curriculum Vitae) guide. They could be included or excluded, however in the earlier option i.e. where hobbies and interests are a part of the curriculum vitae, be careful about what to write and what to preferably avoid. This is quite obvious, especially considering the relevance of a curriculum vitae in the process of job search and therefore favorable career progression.
