When writing your resume objective you need to be very clear
and concise regarding the job, job title, or career that you
are qualified for. You need to be specifif and avoid general
catch all terms such as ‘I am seeking a management position.’
What the heck does that mean?

‘I am seeking a managerment position’ could mean almost anything.
Besides not telling your potential employer anything about the
job you are looking for or what you are qualified to do, it also
send a very negative signal. It tells your potential employer
that you are desperate for a job and pretty much willing to take
anything that comes your way.

Nobody wants to hire someone like that. At least not if the
position is anything above a temporary position or entry level.
Even in those cases, you will be better off with a clearly defined
resume objective.

When putting together your resume objective (and your entire job
search, for that matter) you need to think like a marketer. This
means being very targeted about what you are selling (yourself)
and who you are selling to (your potential employer).

Take the time to define your career objective and put it down on
paper. When you have that, you’ll be able to refine it into a
clear, precise, and concise resume objective that will wow your
employer. When the employers sees a great resume objective, the
rest of the resume will get read, moving you one step close to
landing the job interview.

Your resume objective needs to impress because the employer will
take about two seconds to decide if your resume is worth further
study or if it goes in the reject pile with 99% of the resumes
they receive.

Let them know from your resume objective that you can offer them
your unique skill set and experience that will be of benefit to
them and that you’re not just looking to meet your own goals and
agenda.
