    Should I Include my Career Objective on my Resume?

    • There is no consensus among resume experts about objectives. It is a matter of individual choice, BUT about 40 percent of employers say they want to see an objective.
    • An objective can help sharpen the focus of your resume.
    • If you use an objective, make it specific. Vague, all-purpose objectives defeat the purpose.
    • Ideally include title, field, or industry of position you are seeking.
    • Do NOT include what you are expecting from the company. Always tell what you can do for the company; not what the company can do for you.
    • Do NOT ask for an entry-level job.
    • If you do not use an objective, state your objective in your cover letter.
