Writing a well-crafted resume objective is as important as
wearing nice shoes to an interview.
Here is the catch, though, just as how you wouldn’t wear f l ip -flops to an interview, you wouldn’t wear your shiny shoes to the beach.

What not to say…
Don’t use a general career objective
statement for all your applications. It will hurt
your chances more than it will help. You are
trying to collect points in every section of your
resume.
“
Don’t use fillers. Whatever you say in
your CV needs to serve a particular
mission. It needs to help you position
yourself for that role “
Avoid writing long paragraphs. It should
be short, simple, and effective. Hiring
managers will only browse through it.
They don’t have time to go over it in great
detail.
“
It’s not about you! It’s about what you give
to the organization. Leverage your
experience and skills and explain briefly
how they will benefit them. “
What to say…

objective as specific
as you can” Deniz Sasal PwC Consulting Manager
