Hi. I'm applying for a summer internship in Canada. Can you guys take a look at my resume and chance me for MBB, Oliver, Deloitte S&O and Accenture? Any suggestions to the resume is welcome too. Thank you (:





strategic relationship with a
strategic relationship with a C-level exec. of a large Asian company sounds big.
Especially in your first internship (first year of university?)
Be ready to talk about this.

If you don't have any personality issues, I would say you have a very good chance at Deloitte S&O.

"Established a strategic relationship with a C-level exec. of a large Asian company" doesn't sound big, it sounds like an exaggeration. Especially since your work experience went from bringing in bigshot clients to writing debugging guides.
Overall, your resume looks pretty good, and I'd say you have at least a decent shot at MBB; ultimately, the other applicants from your school will determine whether or not you get through. I just can't get over that last work bullet; in one line, you sold invitations to networking events, and in the next, you're allegedly doing the kind of stuff that partners do.
One of those lights, slightly brighter than the rest, will be my wingtip passing over.
well, the gig with the
well, the gig with the consulting firm was actually in my gap year before I entered university. I was brought in because of my specific knowledge of a new market. And since it was a new market, the execs were more welcoming towards new business ideas. So yeah, I got very lucky.
After I entered university, naturally my internships revert back to engineering stuffs again. To be honest, I only wanted out after I did two engineering internships.
I heard that some interviewers can be very harsh and poke fun at the applicant's resume. What kind of questions should I expect for my experience with the consulting firm?
Thank you.
@2x2Matrix: they're actually
@2x2Matrix: they're actually the same job. The relationship was to provide clients for the events. So instead of calling and getting 1000 people to come, I called the execs and told them that if they provide those 1000 attendees, we will bring in our expertise and help them. So basically I saved the firm a lot of trouble (out of my laziness). It should sound clearer when I put the firm's name and event there.

That makes sense, but I think you still need more detail in your resume bullets. What you just wrote makes perfect sense; what you have on the resume is pretty befuddling.
