Dear LV15,

I am not a fan of the "objective" section because I think it is a waste of space. If you are sending your resume in for a job or for a business school application, then your objective is obviously to get the job or get into school. Thus I would remove the section entirely--but that is my two cents on the matter.

Good luck,
Lisa
