By Sayaka Seino

A critical part of a resume is the objectives section. This has been a changing part of resumes. Many objectives are becoming profiles. This is usually the first section the employer reviews. They want to see what you want to accomplish and what you will bring to their company. If this section is bold and straightforward, your resume will stick out to them. The main difference between objectives and profiles is the tense in which you write it. Objectives are written in first person while profiles are written in third person. Profiles can make you appeal more boldly than objectives can. The main thing to do when making this transition is to change your mindset. Profiles will have you think what you can do for others and how you can make a positive impact on the company, as opposed to what the company can do for you.
