What is the importance of writing a career objective in your CV?

It is the picture outline of your canvas.

Canvas; Your Proffessional Goals.

Picture outline; How you will get there.

Are you a Vincent van Gogh? Or are you an abstract painter?

P.S. van gogh is only used to make a point, do not enclose body parts in your CV submittals.

 

A career objective is extremely essential to write in a CV. To any employer , head hunter or HR , it gives them an insight on  whether the job offered is in sync with your career aspirations. It simply suggests a purposeful  personality. it enables organizations etc. to determine 

1. Your fit for the role and the vice versa and 

 2.  enables the organizations  to carve  a path for you ( whether through designing KRA's , through  training and development ,or giving  Higher responsibilities )  that will help you achieve or bring you  closer to objectives. 

Is to let the employer know who you are and what is your expectation for the company

It's very important to show the real purpose of getting this job from your side....it's easy from that objective to realize what's your personality and your mind and your future pont of view.

And then the judgment will be easy to give you a certain role in the job.....may be you were applying for one and based on your career objective you will get another..

Career Obective indicates your future goals and planning to develop your career along with company after joining the organization. This shows how far you can contribute your knowlwdge to the peopel in the organization. 

Career objective is a clear message which goes out to the potential employers. If you write clear and definitive career objectives, the recruiter will be able to identify you easily. People gain experience by putting in years of work, but the expertise they can thru years will help them define their career objectives. It speaks volumes about the vision of the individual

Hi Salam Assi,

Hope you are doing good!!

Here is my view point towards your question.

A career objective in your CV holds both strategic as well as tactical importance. Strategic for the reason that, career objective for me goes beyond the job aspiration, it communicates one's vision,passion and thought process.

Tactical importance - Motivates the manager/leader to read through your resume.Gives an indication about the position you are applying for, Gives leader fair bit of understanding about your core competence.

PLease note - A good resume with a good career objective increases your chances for job interview.

Hope, I answered your question,should you have anymore questions please feel free to connect.

Thanks & Regards,
