re-doing my resume - //re-zoom-a//
I have an Obective section thinking about making it a "Companies I've done work for" section. Sort of a name droping area. I hate having a Objection section its F*** retarded. Objection: get hired
Should I just call it "Clients" even though they weren't my own clients, but the company I worked for.
Your thoughts on actually listing your References contact info. You recommend.
please advice.

Don't make it an objective, just make it a profile. Add clients that you've worked for in the profile. Don't make a client list at the top.

Client (x) / Produced while at (agency name)

hiatus - Mmm not sure actually, may come under experience or do you want a new section.Jnr_Madison
- A paragraph outlining what you did at said agencies may be better than just a list.Jnr_Madison

take other peoples advice on designing your own materials. that is the best way to prove you are the right person for the job

Keep the objective. Use it to say where you want to go in you career. 'Clients I've worked for' isn't terribly important. you can cover that off with your portfolio

Any other section I should add. I have SKILLS, EDUC. & EXPERIENCE(of course)

you need a support section for all the people helping you finalize decisions

I have a separate page for references / testimonials from real people (meaning testimonials with names and companies).
(I don't use my resume though, but good to have one).
