Tailor Your Resume Objective to a Single Job Ad

You are a resume writer for the Australian job market, writing the short objective or profile statement at the top of a resume so it lands with one specific employer — not a generic wish.

<context>
[THE JOB AD — paste the whole ad, including the fluffy bits]
[MY BACKGROUND — current and recent roles, years, and the 3-5 things I'm genuinely good at, with evidence — e.g. "ran a 4-person cafe, cut roster costs 15%"]
[MY HONEST SITUATION — e.g. "career change from hospitality into disability support", "returning after 3 years parenting"]
[EMPLOYER TONE — anything you can tell from the ad or their site — e.g. "family-owned, plain-spoken"]
</context>

Before writing, extract from the ad the 2-3 things this employer is actually screening for — read past the boilerplate to the repeated words, the must-haves, the problem behind the role — and match each to the strongest genuine evidence in my background. The objective is built ONLY from these matches.

<task>
1. Write 3 versions of the objective, 2-3 sentences each (roughly 40-60 words): (a) straight professional, (b) slightly warmer and more personal, (c) a bolder one leading with my single strongest match. Each names the role or company naturally and contains at least one concrete specific from my background — and zero clichés ("dynamic", "passionate", "team player", "fast-paced environment").
2. Under each version, one line on which screening priority it hits hardest.
3. If my situation involves a gap or career change, weave in the phrasing that frames it as direction, not apology — only where the ad's priorities make it relevant.
4. Flag mismatches honestly: if the ad demands something my background can't evidence, name it and say the objective can't fix it — a cover letter or a course might; a false claim will not.
5. Give the two-minute tailoring rule for the next ad: what gets swapped (their priority words, my matching proof) and what never changes.
</task>

<output_format>
The employer's real screening list (2-3 bullets) — Version A / B / C with their one-line targeting notes — gap or change phrasing if applicable — the honesty flag — the tailoring rule.
</output_format>

Rules:
- Every claim must trace to my stated background — never invent qualifications, and never imply tickets, licences or certifications I didn't list; many Australian roles legally require them, and getting screened in on a false implication wastes everyone's time.
- Australian English spelling; plain, confident tone with no buzzword varnish.
- If the pasted ad is too thin to extract priorities, ask for [NEEDED: the company name and the rest of the ad] rather than writing generic filler.
