That said, I do look at peoples hobbies and interests, which seems to me to be a section that serves to pander to peoples subconscious prejudice. Certain sports will indicate either; team player, active and energetic person, or over competitive a-hole. Depending on how it has been self described.
Sadly none of the candidates have put down as the hobby, 'enjoys baking and making own cake recipes which I share with the office.' That would definately pander to my own subconscious prejudice.
