Activities / Interests on Resume

Do you have a section where you put activities or interests or hobbies?

I used to be into competitive boardercross snowboarding and also triathlons (I am an Ironman). I’ve attended nationals for snowboarding twice.

I have a section on there for that stuff. Actually had a whole conversation with someone about Formula 1 the other day just because he saw it on my resume. It can make for great talking points if there into the same things or if their just curious about it.

Funny - in college I always rolled my eyes at this section, like who cares? In reality - this is actually a pretty damn big component of a resume. Things that make you stand out, connect with the interviewer, or show competitiveness/grit are all massive pluses
