Resume Advice for SA 2011 applicant

Hey Everyone,

This is my first post, but I've been reading this blog for the past 2 years. I can say that this website has helped me be aware of some of the things I needed to do in order to become a solid candidate from a non-target school.

I am going to be applying to some SA 2011 positions soon.
I go to a non-target, so the only way I can strike an interview is through networking and a decent resume.I was just wondering if my resume was good enough to land an interview and if you had any suggestions/critiques in order to make it better.

All pointers/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Network like crazy in Philly since you're there anyway....resume looks good

If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses - Henry Ford
 
MaX PL:
why'd you blank out all that info?

its obvious youre at Drexel based on the other info.

I was trying to make it anonymous to take away any bias and also for privacy's sake.

Do people think my resume is decent enough to just apply on BB's websites without any personal contacts at those firms?

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys!

Generally, if you can avoid doing this, you should.

I would get rid of "Candidate for" and replace "Anticipated Graduation" with "Expected". You've got really good computer skills but I would consider leaving Office out. It doesn't fit in with all the others.
