One of my clients recently sent me a copy of a resume that they had started with an objective that read: "A challenging position where I can grow and ..." Employers and recruiters hate this and objectives in general are no longer being used.
It is much more effective to use a Profile, Highlights, or Summary statement. In most instances, your resume will be viewed for 30 seconds or less so the Profile section needs to grab the employer by showing skills, work accomplishments, traits, educational achievements, certifications, and language skills that appeal to the employer and entice him or her to want to learn more about you. Don't use fluff.
Speak in more general terms in the Profile and back it up with specific accomplishments in the Experience section of the resume.
