Some guidelines of CV Formatting

• Career Objective :

Career objective works like sales tool and it is the opening statement of resume.
Just make clear your objective and goal in life and show the organization t what
you can do for them.

The career objective should be an open book of your life, so decorate it with
confidence and some additional talents.

Having experience, qualifications and exceptional talent is a common thing but

career objective can make it more special in terms of selection. There are several
things that should be considered while writing the career objective.

• Career objective should not be vague or meaningless. It reflects

employer’s perspective but not job seekers. It should explode all the
possibilities that an employer can contribute to the company. It should
demonstrate the value that a perfect candidate can add to their organization.
• It helps in sharpen the image of resume, especially for those who are well
experienced. Some people do not mention their objective on the resume but
they can mention to discuss their objective in cover letter. It really makes a
positive impression on the interviewer.

Always use a creative career objective rather than copying the same from
any website.
