As a rule of thumb, you should consider including objective statement if:

You lack work experience or you’re new to the industry.

You’re switching careers. It’s useful to explain yourself briefly before the hiring manager gets to read through your work experience.

You have gaps in your employment history and need to explain your lack of recent work experience.

If you decide to include an objective statement, keep in mind this last piece of advice: No beating around the bush. Be clear and concise.
