i have had the same issues and took a small resume workshop and they said to leave out the OBJECTIVE and to replace it with a SUMMARY OF SKILLS .. that way you describe yourself and your objectives all in one..Now i dont think its your resume if you are landing first and second interviews.. Maybe you can go to your local unemployment office and see if they offer interview coaching..i know they do in my state.. they actually have a whole building set up just for job search and placements..its called VALLEYWORKS in my state maybe its in yours...good luck bro and hope you find something
 
Man I've been turned by gyms hotels retail clothing shops fml it's like what am I doing wrong I've so confident and relaxed
 
Just to interject... Try something different... Still be yourself but be yourself in a different mode. If your getting a second interview they want to be wowed they won't to be like "That's the guy. HEY MIKEY THIS IS THE FUCK ING GUY RIGHT HERE" Now I don't know you from Adam but what do you have to lose

Eat. Lift. Sleep. Repeat.

Your right man but I wanna be pretty consisent I don't bs I don't over hype myself I always tell them I wanna learn more and continue to grow
 
And that's a great quality... Don't bs... Just give em. Something to make you stand out.. Something intangible... It's not your cloths your hair the way you speak... It's a combination off all that and a little something special... Idk just trying to help

Eat. Lift. Sleep. Repeat.

I had to edit out some of the location info from your post brother.

I've reviewed a couple resumes and have hired people and here are some things that pop out:

-Cut out the objective, that's unnecessary.
-Education - cut out high school, you don't need to list that if you went to college. If you got the degree, list BA or BS. Put education below your work experience because your education wasn't directly related to customer service.
-Under work experience, the order you listed your job title, location, etc. is inconsistent.

-Also, your tenses are off. Some of it is in past tense, some of it is in present tense. e.g. you wrote "Handle reservation requests; check guests in/out;" for the 2006 job, but you wrote "Developed new prospects" for the job you started in 2008. Make it all past or present (e.g. handling reservation requests, developing new prospects OR handled reservation requests, developed new prospects) for all of your resume. Stick with one.

-Also shorten the skills and abilities section (make the sentences shorter)

There's also a lot of small grammar and spelling mistakes. I know you think they don't mean shit, but from the position of a manager, you want to be sure your employee can communicate successfully and knows English well (and also has attention to detail).
Lots of little stuff like "Microsoft Office 2007-2010 or 2007-2013" (there was no Office 2011), or other little mistakes and errors.

If you want, go ahead and ask me more questions, or you can PM me and I can work with you to get your resume looking nice and professional. I can't guarantee you'll get a job, but I have experience with hiring people and can give you my experience in making it look professional.
