Sighhhh.
So much conflicting advice.
I've been told repeatedly to get any personal interests or anything unrelated to my career OFF my resume because nobody wants to hear about my personal life at this stage and it just takes up space.
Then again before I took it off, 3 hiring managers made note of my appreciation of Formula 1.
However, after it was pounded into me to remove personal stuff I took it out and only left my volunteer activities.
