Recruiting managers are generally having very busy schedule always. They do not spend much time on a resume to make primary short listing. So it is essential for you to prepare an eye catching resume with a high-impact resume objective.
In our earlier post we discussed about how to write a resume objective. However, we are yet to discuss on the importance of resume objective OR in other words, what is the purpose of writing resume objective.
If you are a fresher OR looking to switch over your career from one domain to another, then it is recommended to incorporate a resume objective section in your resume.
Resume objective section not only let the hiring manager inform that, you are the best candidate for the job but also helps to clearly explain that you are making the switch and show that your skill set, although not traditionally associated with the job you are now applying for, does in actuality translate and aligns with this new career path.
Further, if you are looking for a specific job opening, then incorporate a formal resume objective statement. Writing a resume objective allows you to clearly define your career goal to the prospective employer.
It is also possible that, at a time there may be number of job opening available in an organisation and you have applied to one among them without any resume objective.
So, the possibility is high that, the recruiting manager may make mistake in suitably identifying your resume against the right vacancy. Hence, writing a resume objective will help you to draw the attention of hiring manager.
