An 'Objective' Debate

There is an interesting article by Erin Hovanec on the pros and cons of listing an ‘objective’ on your resume. Proponents state that it’s the quickest, simplest way to get your target job across. Opponents disagree by saying that it wastes valuable resume space and limits you to only one position when you might be qualified for more.

I’ll let you head to the article if you’re interested, but I’m curious, do you think that listing an ‘objective’ on a resume is necessary? Also, what other standard resume items might be overrated?
