Resumes
I think your objective is good, but here are some other portions that you might want to consider. (also, it may be diff. depending on how much experience you have)
1. Perhaps you can talk about what you can bring to the company. ex. how your skills, experience, or any other special talents (foreign languages) can help the department/company.
2. If you are past your freshman year in college you should remove any awards/leardership positions, etc. from high school. Once you graduate from college you can remove the name of your high school all together. (since your resume shouldn't exceed 1 pg. you'll find that you need the space).
3. Obviously you want to add relevant work experience. I include my leadership positions and relevant organizational affiliations. I also put some major awards that I have won, if they relate to the type of work that I'm doing. You might also put relevant coursework (if you're in college) and other skills or certifications. Lastly, many people include if they have studied abroad.
