How to translate "objective" as in name of section in a resume


Usually resumes contain the "Objective" paragraph which provides the summary
of things a person thinks he does best and what he wants to do. Will simply
using 目的{もくてき} work or there is a more specific term.




I would look at standard Japanese 履歴書{れきりしょ} rather than translating from an
English resume format.

A common section is 志望{しぼう}の動機{どうき} which is a reason for applying (to that
particular job/company), and tends to contain the sort of thing you're
describing - why you want to work in that field and/or for that company,
combined with any skills and experience you have that makes you right for the
job.
