Once again, speaking as a hiring manager, I find most all "objectives" on resumes good for a nice chuckle -- then move on to what I thing is important -- experience.

I think I mentioned on another thread, resume forms have changed -- and continue to change -- every few years. I think that is so the "experts" and HR people can continue to be "experts" and HR people.

In reality, I think it's what you've done and accomplished that get's you an interview -- not how nicely worded your "objective" is.

And, even after graduating in 1965, I still list my high school. If the hiring manager doesn't care, she/he won't read it. And, although not too likely, you might run into a recruiter who is from your home town or even your high school, and it draws attention to yourself and even gives you a conversation point.

Only my opinions with no basis in fact.
