Answer 2

"Well, (insert name of interviewer), where shall I start? Most recently, I have spent my free time doing missionary work in the inner-city, building homes for low-income grandmothers and fostering orphaned kittens and puppies. Before that, I tinkered some with water purification and used my skills to improve well water in impoverished third world countries..... On a more personal note, I am a regular and active member of my church, a devoted family person, and I am eternally grateful to have a wonderful spouse who takes care of the kids and our home without ever expecting me to help out -- leaving me plenty of time to work extra hours at work. We recycle, mow our lawn with a push-mower to protect the environment, and feed the ducks in the pond every Saturday morning. In my free time, I take a few classes at the local university, and have recently completed my accounting degree, my MBA, my doctorate in education, and medical school."

That should impress them.
