WRITING AN EFFECTIVE RESUME OBJECTIVE

A resume objective is a statement of your goals for employment, usually listed at the top of your resume. A resume objective is typically one or two sentences long.

The most effective objective is one that is tailored to the job you are applying for. It states what kind of career you are seeking, and what skills and experiences you have that make you ideal for that career. A resume objective might also include where you have been and where you want to go in your career.

For example, it might state some of your past accomplishments, and then move on to the kinds of accomplishments you hope to achieve in the future (ideally, accomplishments you want to achieve for the company you are applying to).

Ultimately, stating an objective is optional, but it can help convince employers that you know what you want and are familiar with the industry.

When to Use a Resume Objective

Again, some career experts find resume objectives outdated. However, there are times when a resume objective can be very useful. Whenever you want to emphasize that you are ambitious, that you know what you want in a career, or that you have the skills for the specific job, you could benefit from a resume objective.
