Junior semi-target, need help

I'm a junior from a semi-target looking for some feedback on my resume. I'm looking for an internship either in IB or S&T, two areas I've really come to enjoy over the past 6 months or so. Let me know if you guys think anything should be changed, omitted or added.

I would condense the BS in Finance and BS in Econ part. I recieved a BS and usually you can only major in finance not get a degree (picky I know, don't think it is a huge deal)

Put your major GPA if it is better.

I would try and put more results achieved at your various positions rather than just saying what you did

Skills, where is this? Do you know any financial programs? Unix, Microsoft, C++, whatever? Are you in the investment club, anything?

I like the format though.

 

Overall looks decently solid. I would clean up the language though.

For instance, "Worked side by side..." sounds a little sophomoric, along with the following bullets.

Again the first line after your bullet needs to project professionalism, action, and results regardless of the content.

For example; I would say what you did running the frat: "Planned & scheduled bi-monthly chapter meetings and coordinated attendance of over 75 members -- Assessed & monitored chapters progress with fund raising, academic, new member, & community service goals -- Reported to national headquarters every fiscal quarter on spending & financial strength of chapter -- Led chapter to second highest cash surplus within XXX organization"

Exactly what I am talking about.
