Lying on CVs is not a good idea, even if it just is a hobby. You never know your interviewer may share the hobby.
Mastication..
Eating brains, mumbling incoherently and walking very slowly.
write something that makes you stand out and get remembered! eg. under water sack racing, stake board jousting..

who can prove you dont do these things!
web page design, photography , films music depends on what job you go for try and link hobbies with the job!
Lying
Smashing bananas with a mallet

jym
socialising with friends

Great one.I said in my spare time i studied another langage (not necessary a lie i did buy the teapes) you can always say you've just started.

Good luck

Good luck
I wouldn't suggest lying, because if you list some extreme hobby, you may get asked about it at a job interview. Your lies will then be as transparent as a window-pane. Make yourself sound as interesting as possible. Anything that involves using your brain, like doing quizzes or puzzles shows that you like to stay sharp, or list some of your favourite authors if you like reading. Just think of anything about yourself that's worth sharing-any prospective employer will appreciate it. :)
Say you love gardening and grow all your own fruit and veg!! thats overaly lieing though!

goodluck in your new job! x
How about you love meeting new people(which u probly will in a bar) because it gives you a chance 2 meet ppol from different cultures and backgrounds?
Just don't do it..Lie Maybe say you LOVE smoothies and want to work there to become a TESTER.LOL
Gang bang
Lying is not a good idea, you could include somethings you are intending to take up though. Make some plans, you don't have to follow through.
You should always put socialzing, it means you like people, the way i look at it put on your C.V what you think they want to hear, it hasn't done me any harm, its a man eat man world out there so do what you have to to get that job, one thing is it shows that your determind!
Don't even consider lieing, actually think about something that you have always wanted to do.go and do it, and then put it on you're CV.

CVs are not a record of what you have done, your actual experiences are, and being able to talk about them with entusiasm will count for a lot.

Don't try to convince people you are active and interesting, go out there and actually be those things!!
Anything to do with being with people -teamwork, sports, voluntary work, something you could have in common with the interviewer in case they run out of stuff to ask you.
GROW UP AND GET A LIFE YOU SPOONER
Researching whatever takes my interest, at the moment it takes the form of canvassing opinions
Interests/ Hobbies
Write these in note form. They should indicate that you are a well-balanced person.

Try and include things which will enhance your CV, such as any positions of responsibility or activities that you are involved in organising.

Potential employers often ask questions at interview about interests, so make sure you can talk about what you claim to have an interest in! do not tell lies.
Erm. OK, I may be a bit naive about this but I wouldn't lie. Get the job under your own merits or not at all. Sorry.
THE TRUTH. Why do you need to start off with a new employer by telling a lie? It will be your capability for the work that counts and no doubt your general demeanour.
No man you shouldn't never lie on ur CV coz it may bring you a failiure in ur future, It's no matter you How much like it or not, just be honest and One day you will achieve ur goal undesirably.
There's no need to lie - just be 'creative' about the truth - ie. You own a cat .. so you love animals, you tried water skiing on holiday - so you like water sports, you mentioned about the camera - so you've got an interest in photography . get the picture (Sorry!) . I'm sure you can work the rest out for yourself - and as for the gym - tell him. you don't have to look and act like Arnie or Sylvester to have an interest in health !..
