What is an Objective? (resume')

[Renaee]

I'm updating my resume and it's asking for an Objective. What would be the
best way to word the right information?

 

[JoAnn Paules [MSFT MVP]]

I want a job.

(Don't really do that - but it *is* what I would love to put in there.)

 

[Mike Hall \(MS-MVP\)]

I have included the use of the word as an adjective to give you a 'global'
view of the word. The part that you need to read for the meaning when in a
resume is under the heading 'noun'

adjective

Composed of or relating to things that occupy space and can be perceived by
the senses: concrete, corporeal, material, phenomenal, physical, sensible,
substantial, tangible.
Having verifiable existence: concrete, real, substantial, substantive,
tangible.
Free from bias in judgment: disinterested, dispassionate, equitable, fair,
fair-minded, impartial, indifferent, just, nonpartisan, square, unbiased,
unprejudiced. Idioms: fair and square.
Having or indicating an awareness of things as they really are:
down-to-earth, hard, hardheaded, matter-of-fact, practical, pragmatic,
pragmatical, prosaic, realistic, sober, tough-minded, unromantic.

noun

What one intends to do or achieve: aim, ambition, design, end, goal, intent,
intention, mark, meaning, object, point, purpose, target, view, why. Idioms:
end in view, why and wherefore. See planned/unplanned,
purpose/purposelessness.
