Objective section on the resume?
I have noticed that a lot of the resumes posted are missing an objective summary section. Is an objective summary section really necessary in trying to get a job or internship in business?

Absolutely not. If you are applying for a job, it should be implied that your objective is to land the job. If it is a competitive job, such as an IB position, then it can also be assumed that you are seeking a challenging positions, etc, etc.
It is filler on a resume and you really don't need it - you've only got 1 page, so stick to the pertinent information - education, work experience, ECs, skills and so forth.
Not only is it not needed, I'd consider it detrimental.
Objectives sections are superfluous and have no place on a resume.
the objective section isn't "missing" it's just that the resume's author isn't a (complete) dipshit
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO..
