You want to be a well-rounded, not a drone. But your potential employer would be even more turned off if he suspects that your heavy extracurricular load will interfere with your commitment to your work duties.
BEST ANSWERS: Try to gauge how this company's culture would look upon your favorite outside activities and be guided accordingly.
You can also use this question to shatter any stereotypes that could limit your chances. If you're over 50, for example, describe your activities that demonstrate physical stamina. If you're young, mention an activity that connotes wisdom and institutional trust, such as serving on the board of a popular charity.
But above all, remember that your employer is hiring your for what you can do for him, not your family, yourself or outside organizations, no matter how admirable those activities may be.

(Flip this one over. Despite the question, the employer isn't really interested in what you are looking for. He's interested in what he is looking for. Address his interests, rather than yours. Use words like "contribute," "enhance," "improve," and "team environment." Fit your answer to their needs Relate your preferences and satisfiers/dissatisfiers to the job opening.)

This is a good question to know the answer to before you go into the interview. Make a list of books, movies, blogs, newspapers, magazines, etc. - especially if they are related to your field of work or your career of choice. You want to present yourself as the ideal candidate, whose personal interests and are in line with that of the company or organization you want to work for. You need to present yourself as if you belong or that you will 'fit in well' with the company culture. If you do this before the interview, you will have no problem replying confidently with an answer that you fill comfortable giving to the interviewer.
