Resume Objective sport store?

Question

I am applying at a Sports Store for a customer service/Sales Job. The Store is a Sports Chalet/Sports Authority/Play it Again Sports/Big 5 Sporting Goods type of store. They asked me to bring in a resume. What should i put on the resume as my objective? Any Ideas. What else should i add on to my resume to make it more appealing to them. Thank You.

Most folks always get this one wrong by writing down some long-winded flowery verbiage. This is not necessary. Employers (of which I am one) see thousands of resumes and appreciate short and sweet. Your objective should really be the job you are seeking. Anything else is a waste of valuable resume real estate. It should read something like this:

"Employment Objective: Sales Representative"

or...

"Employment Objective: Customer Service Representative"
