Career Tip: How to add hobbies to your CV

Your CV tells employers about your experience, education, and achievements. But your hobbies and interests can reveal the person behind the qualifications. Whether you play a team sport, volunteer in your community, build websites, or pursue a creative passion, these activities can demonstrate valuable qualities such as leadership, communication, organisation, commitment, and problem-solving.

Indeed shows you when a hobbies and interests section can strengthen your CV and how to choose activities that showcase your personality while highlighting skills that employers value.
