Define your career or objective in short and crisp language.
Example-
Enthusiastic marketing manager looking to reach and enhance revenue targets at XYZ company. I have proficiency in visual social media marketing. I also have experience of developing 15 wireframes for small firms.
Make sure you are including the name of the company and the job title you are applying for in your career objective.
The resume content here should include-
Your most recent job, title, and role in bullet points.
Then follow the same format for the job or jobs held previously to this.
Share numbers instead of vague ‘increased sales’.

Attention to details
Consider a cover letter as a story you tell your potential employers. By story, we don’t mean you lie but speak about your journey in a catchy manner. Including a cover letter with your resume is more likely to be considered than one without.
Example-
I am a sales/digital/content marketing manager having 4 years of experience and am looking to join hands with you. I have the education and experience to know the pulse of this industry- how it works, what makes its heart stop, and how to keep it alive and thriving. I hope together we can reach new audiences and keep them growing.
You see, a cover letter adds a spark to your application and one without it can be pretty dull and may even face rejection.
