Is the fact that I’ve never been to Boston in the Fall a hard skill or a soft skill?

Career Objective or Resume Objective Samples For Freshers

Introduction

In the world of careers, having a clear goal is super important. One way to do that is by writing a career objective. It's like a mini statement that shows what you want to achieve professionally. But making a good one isn't always easy. Let's explore step by step how to create a strong career objective.

Understanding the Basics

A career objective is a short statement that tells employers what job you want and what you can offer. It's like a compass, pointing you and your potential employer in the same direction. It helps you stay focused and shows employers what you're all about.

Crafting Your Career Objective

To write a good career objective, think about what you want in your career. Then, make sure your objective matches the job you're applying for. Keep it short and sweet, but also make it unique to you. Let your personality shine through!

Sample Career Objectives for Different Fields

Engineering and Technical Roles

"I want to use my skills in [specific field] to help create new technology and improve existing systems."

Marketing and Sales Positions

"I love telling stories and making people excited about products. I want to do that for a company and help them grow."

Finance and Accounting Careers

"I'm good with numbers and I want to help businesses manage their money wisely for long-term success."

Healthcare and Nursing Roles

"I care about people's health and well-being. I want to use my skills to provide top-notch care and support to patients."

Tips for Writing a Compelling Objective

Be Specific: Tailor your objective to the job you want.

Show Passion: Let employers know you're excited about the job.

Highlight Achievements: Talk about things you've done that make you a great fit.

Keep it Short: Make your objective easy to read and understand.

Stand Out: Show what makes you unique and different from other candidates.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Using Generic Phrases: Avoid clichés that don't say much about you.

Too Much Detail: Keep it simple and focused.

Not Matching the Job: Make sure your objective fits the job you're applying for.

Including Irrelevant Info: Stick to what's important for the job.

Lack of Honesty: Be truthful and authentic in your objective.

Final Thoughts

Writing a good career objective is key to starting your job search on the right foot. It's your chance to show employers who you are and what you're all about. Keep it clear, concise, and true to yourself. Your career objective can help you stand out and land that dream job!

Had the dumbest conversation with my sister and it reminded me of these two. Sending a resume including SCUBA ocean diving certifications without context while applying for a job seems like something Wind would do.

Killer would be terrible at court

Color is talking about this comic at the beginning btw

Killer belongs to rahafwabas

Color belongs to SuperYoumna

Transcription:

Color: … and then he asked me to join the Star Sanses out of the blue

Killer: Damn, seriously?

Color: Yeah, I refused the offer though

Killer: Good, or else our friendly meetings would be kinda weiiird

Color: …

Color: Just to be clear, I don’t like you working for Nightmare either

Killer: Sigh, we already talked about this. Boss isn’t all that bad!

Killer: He gives us food to eat, a place to sleep AND he even let’s us watch the TV at night

Color: Yeah, I don’t know if you know this, but that’s like the bare minimum. Like, what do you think will happen if you quit one day?

Killer: What? Why would I do that?

Color: Just answer the question

Killer: I don’t know, he’ll probably kill me

Color: Yeah! See??

Killer: …?

Color: You don’t see anything wrong with that?

Killer: No, not really

the thing about joe hills of nashville tennessee is that on a server of folks roleplaying mad scientists and zombies and kings and creeper-goats and kakashi of naruto and mayors and businessmen and slimes and iskall and dungeon masters and doom guy and dwarves and elves and aliens and whatever the gigaverse is, you have Joe Hills The Regular Human Guy From Nashville (Tennessee), and yet his normalcy is frequently more bizarre somehow than whatever else is going on. and this never ever fails to enchant and delight me.

after 10 years & 6 jobs in corporate america, i would like to share how to game the system. we all want the biggest payoff for the least amount of work, right?

know thine enemy: beating the robots

i see a lot of misinformation about how AI is used to scrape resumes. i can't speak for every company but most corporations use what is called applicant tracking software (ATS).

no respectable company is using chatgpt to sort applications. i don't know how you'd even write the prompt to get a consumer-facing product to do this. i guarantee that target, walmart, bank of america, whatever, they are all using B2B SaaS enterprise solutions. there is not one hiring manager plinking away at at a large language model.

ATS scans your resume in comparison to the job posting, parses which resumes contain key words, and presents the recruiter and/or hiring manager with resumes with a high "score." the goal of writing your resume is to get your "score" as high as possible.

but tumblr user lightyaoigami, how do i beat the robots?

great question, y/n. you will want to seek out an ATS resume checker. i have personally found success with jobscan, which is not free, but works extremely well. there is a free trial period, and other ATS scanners are in fact free. some of these tools are so sophisticated that they can actually help build your resume from scratch with your input. i wrote my own resume and used jobscan to compare it to the applications i was finishing.

do not use chatgpt to write your resume or cover letter. it is painfully obvious. here is a tutorial on how to use jobscan. for the zillionth time i do not work for jobscan nor am i a #jobscanpartner i am just a person who used this tool to land a job at a challenging time.

the resume checkers will tell you what words and/or phrases you need to shoehorn into your bullet points - i.e., if you are applying for a job that requires you to be a strong collaborator, the resume checker might suggest you include the phrase "cross-functional teams." you can easily re-word your bullets to include this with a little noodling.

don't i need a cover letter?

it depends on the job. after you have about 5 years of experience, i would say that they are largely unnecessary. while i was laid off, i applied to about 100 jobs in a three-month period (#blessed to have been hired quickly). i did not submit a cover letter for any of them, and i had a solid rate of phone screens/interviews after submission despite not having a cover letter. if you are absolutely required to write one, do not have chatgpt do it for you. use a guide from a human being who knows what they are talking about, like ask a manager or betterup.

but i don't even know where to start!

i know it's hard, but you have to have a bit of entrepreneurial spirit here. google duckduckgo is your friend. don't pull any bean soup what-about-me-isms. if you truly don't know where to start, look for an ATS-optimized resume template.

a word about neurodivergence and job applications

i, like many of you, am autistic. i am intimately familiar with how painful it is to expend limited energy on this demoralizing task only to have your "reward" be an equally, if not more so, demoralizing work experience. i don't have a lot of advice for this beyond craft your worksona like you're making a d&d character (or a fursona or a sim or an OC or whatever made up blorbo generator you personally enjoy).

and, remember, while a lot of office work is really uncomfortable and involves stuff like "talking in meetings" and "answering the phone," these things are not an inherent risk. discomfort is not tantamount to danger, and we all have to do uncomfortable things in order to thrive. there are a lot of ways to do this and there is no one-size-fits-all answer. not everyone can mask for extended periods, so be your own judge of what you can or can't do.

i like to think of work as a drag show where i perform this other personality in exchange for money. it is much easier to do this than to fight tooth and nail to be unmasked at work, which can be a risk to your livelihood and peace of mind. i don't think it's a good thing that we have to mask at work, but it's an important survival skill.

Hypothetically if someone wanted to include their ability to schedule appointments, organize events and transportation, and meal plan and prep for their family on their resume how would they word that

We LOOOOOOVE the "how do I reframe unpaid labor on my resume" question. This is like Bitch bait.

Ok, so this sounds like you are an Organizational Specialist, or a Personal Assistant to a Head of Household, or an Organizational Consultant to a busy professional. List of responsibilities should include event planning, nutritional development, essential transportation, scheduling and booking, and administrative management.

Pick the corporate buzzwords that most fit with the job you're applying for, stare them directly in the eyes, and know that your unpaid labor for your family is VALUABLE WORK EXPERIENCE.
