What is the best way to follow up your resume submission with Recruiters? Led a Cross Functional Team on a resume?
Objective or Summary?
Objective, summary, profile, and many others. With so many options, which is relevant? What influence does the market economy have? How does the term become relevant in the current business climate?
A “Seller’s Market”.
Thirty years ago, the term “Objective” was commonplace on a résumé. This was due to the fact that it was a good economy from a job perspective or what we in the industry call a “seller’s market”. In a “sellers market”, the candidate’s “Objective”, or what you are looking to get out of the job, is relevant, or at least a weighting factor.
Today’s “Buyer’s Market”.
In today’s difficult economy, it is clearly a buyer’s market. Until the employer expresses interest in you, they are not interested in your objectives. Jackson Stevens recommends the use of a “Summary” or “Profile” to show potential employers that you are focused on their needs.
I would have to comment this is an awesome piece of work. I say this deserves mentioning somewhere else. Would you mind if I placed a link on my site to this post?
You have really great taste on catch article titles, even when you are not interested in this topic you push to read it
Your blog is quite good. I always like to hear new ideas on this subject. I have the similar blog in my Country so this has helped me a lot. I did great research on resumes and have observed a great deal of information but absolutely nothing like this. Thanks for sharing.
