Objectives are essentially a short pitch that demonstrates your interest in a position. Objectives show that your resume has been tailored to the role as opposed to a resume that has been sent out indiscriminately. The point of objectives is to demonstrate that you understand what is expected of the role. Avoid listing multiple job roles such as "interested in a manager/director/VP position."Avoid personal pronouns such as I, me and my.Objectives are short and direct without flowery language.Resist the urge to list your skills or experience as these are handled elsewhere such as the work experience section of a resume.Overview: Career Objectives | ||
