Review my resume - Any feedback or suggestions?

Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

My resume is based on the assumption that I will be finished with my current internship in August (which I will be,) and will be applying for FT IB positions after my last upcoming year.

Question - I am doing a 6 month internship at a IB, but my position isn't titled as an "Analyst," although if you do a summer internship at a IB, you get the title of a "Summer Analyst." Any suggestions for a better title then "Intern"?

I also have 2 internships that are not on my resume, but are not really relevant to IB. I feel though that I should somehow show it because I don't want to come off as dicking around for 2 summers, when I actually did internships.

2 Internships were:
1) Logistics at a Automotive Supplier in Germany (this might look good to show that I worked abroad before also)

2)Treasury for a Power Company in the US

Strong CV. You've got the basics, just a few things I'd change:

1) Sort out the formatting (in terms of font etc.). Don't know why, but it doesn't seem quite right - use M&I font & sizes etc.

2) Don't indent work & leadership experience.

3) Move all of your location stuff to the r/h side of the line.

4) Remove lines under each work/leadership experience.

5) Could try removing a couple lines from each experience and adding in your Treasury internship. Not to worry if you can't - this will most certainly come up at interview.

 

Thanks for the feedback.

Any suggestion for this?

A company aka my "baby" (as I researched the shit out of it, and have been keeping a very close eye on it,) that I presented as a buy recommendation for the small/mid cap long-only student run investment fund that I was in (see resume), is in the process of being scooped up by a PE firm for around $20 a share.

In my valuation and recommendation, I had a price target of $18.91. In the end, we bought 500 shares at $~16 (keep in mind, this was to learn value/fundamental investing and execute the trades based on our research.) It has not been doing so well over the past year and was trading around $12, until last week, where it was announced that a PE firm would be acquiring it at a 40% premium.

Is it a good idea to put this on my resume? I know I did a lot of research, and believe in what I put into my model, but it has been over a year since I did the valuation and dived into its 10Ks and Qs. Maybe its something to bring up during an interview, and not just to state on my resume?
