Resume review. Tear it up.
Hey WSO,
Welcome all criticism of this CV. Please critique!
Background:
This CV is targeted towards corporate finance positions of tech companies, ranging from the early growth stage startups to the Googles. Also targeted to Consulting/Advisory roles in Transaction Services, specifically in financial due Diligence, and/or Valuation.
Advice:
I have a gap in my resume which I'm concerned about. I left the firm after 4 years because I knew I didn't want to pursue a long term career path in auditing, and the opportunity presented itself for me to travel to my native country for first time. Spent time traveling, and a lot of soul searching/ introspective thinking and making sure I don't just jump into a job again and go after what I really want to do. How will this look on my resume? I have it listed under "Experiences" because I didn't want to leave a gap unexplained.
Any advice, and insight will be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I would use the template you will find here on page 6 and 7:

I think it looks good and I have been advised by bankers to use that template. Food for thought.

Your years aren't consistently italicized and you have a bullet at the bottom that is larger than the others.
Also, using years only looks pretty odd, but how long exactly were you traveling? I mean, four years of work experience is a good amount, but a two year gap is pretty significant.
A year and half of basically relocation. It is significant, that is why I didn't want to leave it unexplained in the resume...wanted to add something so I figured to put it under Experiences?
