Video - Objective vs. Summary on Your Resume

Do you have an objective statement on your resume, a summary of your qualifications, or a combination of the two. Does it even matter? Is the objective better because the Hiring Manager knows exactly what you are looking for? Or is it worse, because it doesn’t highlight what you bring to the party. Why someone should want to hire you. 

Is the summary too self serving, bragging about your talents or is it preferred because it clearly addresses your strengths?

Believe it or not, there IS a proper way to address this on your resume. And it requires thinking about your resume from the point of view of the employer. Watch this video to see the difference between an objective and a summary and learn which one you need on YOUR resume to impress the Hiring Manager.
