FT BB analyst resume help.

I am trying to break into a BB. Preferably to work in a quantitative field,
but my experiences are kind of irrelevant. Any comment is greatly appreciated.
I also double if my cover letter is too short to too cheesy.

Thank you in advance.

Resume: http://www.razume.com/documents/16876

Cover letter: http://www.razume.com/documents/16877

I think you have a chance

Cover letter needs to have more specific examples

good luck

Thanks a lot. BTW, do you think including a personal website url on resume to demonstrate more details is helpful?

 
happypantsmcgee:
No one is going to look at your personal website link

agreed!

Bankers will freak out since nobody else does it. And it won't make you stand out.

Do what you want not what you can!

Thank you so much for saving me before I'll do a stupid thing...

 

No one abbreviates China to CN unless you're applying to a desk that specifically works in the region in which case the locality is more important. Only then would "you see worked in xxxxxx, CN"
