1. I would have thought it means, where do you wanna get to in life? What is your Ambition, in order to help you in the interview I would put something to do with the position applied for, for example if you were applying for Beauty therepy then you could say you want your own salon in the future. Hope that helps, and Good Luck for the interview
2. An objective is your aim or goal i.e. what do you hope to achieve? The form is asking you to describe why do you want to apply for this course, e.g. objectives: to successfully be accepted onto the college course, graduate and then get into a university level course, and/or find a job in the xxx sector, etc.
3. What are your goals? You could state how you hope to accomplish your goals, by study etc.
4. The objective should state what your plans and goals are. So, for example, you may say that your obective is to complete a four-year Bachelor's degree in Education, and secure employment in your local school district. Whatever it is you intend to do, whether it is while you are in college, once you get out, or your 10 year goals, they want to know about it.
5. To write an objective in making a CV (which usually written after the heading is to let the interviewee know what you want for your future job like for example: " To apply my knowledge and expertise in my chosen field and to be an asset to the company as far as information technology is concern."
