Objective Give much thought to writing your Objective, but remember you can change it for each job. Create one or two lines worth.
If the employer is turned off by the objective, he/she won’t read the rest.
Objective should be two or three lines and have  parts:
bulletVery specific as to the type of position you want and the industry
bulletUsing specific keywords explain why you are qualified for that position or know this is the type of work you want to do

For example a "Junior accountant position that utilizes my college courses in computers and job experience using Excel and Word."
Or another example "A teaching position that utilizes my early education college courses and the summer camp and babysitting experience.
 A challenging position with a growing company is too vague.  It is wastes everyone's time - employers want to know what you want to do.
 Don't start objective with "To obtain a".  Just name the type of work you want to do.
Mention bilingual, computer skills and other special skills in the objective.
 You never get a second change to make a good first impression and your objective will make your first impression!
