Answer 1

You need this if you do not have any experience.

If you click on minootoo(it is in blue). You will see mine, I as rule berry it in the summary. I avoid calling it Objective or Aim or summery. I use it as 1St paragraph.

If you do not have any work experience you want to have different objectives made up for different types of opening. One with very general and broad objective, for general use.

You are using the computer so I am hoping you will have different objective in different files and you will merge the objective to resume and match them with advertisement requirement. Or you may need to create new objective to match job requirement of the advertiser.

Resume Objective

Many job seekers include an “Objective” or “Career objective” on their resumes.

It is a statement which expresses an employment goal in one or two short phrases and tells the employer what your target job is or what you want to do.


We consider that this category should be omitted from the resume.We recommend job-seekers to leave off the objective paragraph and use that valuable 'resume real estate' to include more information on accomplishments and experience.

Some of the reasons for omitting the resume objective are:

* While including a resume objective can’t hurt seriously a candidate’s chances, being too specific will prompt a hiring manager to judge his/her credentials only against that specific objective, eliminating the candidate from jobs she/he would want that are slightly different from the objective.
As it is best to use a single objective on a resume, you may need more than one version of your resume for your job search
* Even when the resume objective, commonly at the top of the page, is a general one, the hiring manager won’t look beyond the objective paragraph unless he is specifically interested. Lets suppose that the objective is “progress to a marketing research position”. In this case your resume may never be passed along to the Sales department where someone may be interested in your knowledge and background.
* Resume objective statements are most often used by recent graduates and job seekers doing a career change. If you decide to include an objective statement, make sure that you have a targeted job, you know what skills you want to mention or you are applying for a particular position. In writing the statement be concise and to the point, state your immediate career goals and make a direct relationship to the employer’s needs.


Do not include an objective statement when:

* there are many potential positions which you are qualified for in one organization
* you cannot be specific about your targeted job
* you are using it at a job fair

Answer 3

A career objective is generally used in graduate resumes more experienced job seekers use a professional objective.
The resume objective should be
Clear and concise.
Contains resume action verbs.
Contains job & skill related keywords.
Focus on the employers needs rather than yours.

A career objective expresses what you want to achieve in your career and which position you aspire to, to the reader of your resume, .

Your objective should include: your skills , achievements , the position you are seeking, the specific skills you want to learn and develop, the kind of company you would like to work for. These should be aligned to the job advert.
