Save this resume!

Hey guys,

I`ve been using this resume and there`s not much luck with the jobs im applying too. I`m not looking for no IB, or crazy position. I`m looking for any entry level in the finance industry anything will work. I aspired to eventually move in the risk management field of finance but as you see, I dont have any or much experience in this industry. Please any comments, possible revision, things i should put or not would definitely be helpful. As I will be forever grateful for the wonderful help this community has provided :). (regardless).

Thanks for your time!

You need to put wireless sales associate at the bottom of that experience list. I know, I know, 95% of the time it should be chronological, but I don't think this is that time unless you can do a better job making it sound worthwhile. You have a decent academic/undergrad background and you need to highlight that better. Your bullets are awful, but I'm 100% sure you can embellish/expand on them to make them 10x better.

Your education section needs to be cleaned up a bit. There's great information there but it's cluttered and ugly.

This really could be a much better resume and it's kinda sad you didn't do a better job on it. You need to spend more time on it thinking about how it would look to an outsider. Formatting is half the battle for any resume and is the easiest thing in the world fix. Next you need to do a better job of choosing what you put as a bullet point. I know there are better things you can write about what you did at these positions, and you're choosing lousy ones or not explaining them like you need to. You went into absolutely no detail for any position. Seriously what was that thesis topic, what were these problems, and what solution, what executive position? Specifics are needed.

if you pm your email I can send you a copy I made some comments/edits on.... or if there's a way to just upload it to WSO that'd be preferred.
