Canadian Economics student..still looking for internship/summer job
I am kinds stuck looking for an internship so I thought I would get my resume critiqued by fellow WSO'rs so that I can improve my chances of at least getting a job. I live in the the nations capital..and I am wondering what I can do to help myself..I completely missed recruiting season this year..partially because I was on exchange all year in England ..the rest completely my fault. Next year I will be in my sophomore year at Queens studying Applied Economics. I have made some posts about that situation and from the reply's it looks that I should be ok come next fall. Is there anything else I can try to get an internship? maybe call up some of the boutique banks/financial services/ consultancy firms in ottawa? Also I am an INROADS member but since I applied after I got back from school in April they haven't placed me anywhere...anyway here is my resume for dissection.
