An objective tells the employer why he or she has received
your resume; what position you desire; and your
qualifications. You can imagine what it would be like if you
received 500 or more resumes and none of them told you what
the applicants were looking for - you'd be overwhelmed.
An objective statement is extremely important, as it appears
at the top of the resume.
As a master resume writer, who has helped clients increase
their pay from $2,000 to $80,000 more per year, the objective
samples below will literally help to blow away your
competition.
We'll look at 4 different ways to write objectives. Naming a
specific position. Naming skills. Combining objective and
qualifications. Creating high impact objectives and summary
of qualifications.
An easy to use objective template follows these examples:
|

If you are like me, and most employers, then you think the last 2 objective examples are stronger than the first objectives
examples - but this example is very typical of new resume objectives I've created for clients by asking
questions to quantify achievements and link a client's
image to others or organization.
The last one is a branded objective - meaning that at a glance you know what this person wants, who she can deal with, and what her achievements are. It's direct and to the point, which makes this last sample objective the one that's generated far higher pay for my resume service clients.
You could consider hiring me to write your resume or
buy my book Proven Resumes Strategies That Have
Increased Salaries - it includes far more information
on how to create powerful and high impact resume
objectives - and includes all worksheets and
is far easier than trying to print out the
worksheets via the web.
