Consulting Resume Review (FT positions)

Hey there all. I'm currently a senior and will be applying or Full Time positions to all the consulting firms that recruit at my school (MBB, Deloitte, Accenture, Booz, etc.)

MBB might be out of reach, but I'm mainly looking at Deloitte, Booz, Oliver, AT Kearney, etc. Let me know what you think about my resume, and if you need assistance on yours shoot me a link!

I've posted a resume similar to this one, however I've made significant changes based on the previous comments. Thanks!!

 

Some feedback I'll suggest: - Export to .pdf if you can, I don't enjoy opening Word all the time - I find it odd to use a table to format your school and dates, etc.. - If you list your GPAs, make them out of 4.00 (out of consistency). - I'd remove the "Additional 12 hours in Management, 11 hours in Finance"; why did you include it anyway? - In this line: "Performed and presented cost-benefit analyses on website tools which will save $140K in costs"; did it save 140K in costs? Then just say "Performed and presented cost-benefit analyses on website tools which saved $140K in costs". - Do you really need work eligibility?

formating:

even if you currently hold a position, all bullets should be in past tense. Currently exploring --> explored, Currently developing --> developed. also, the school-related information at the bottom should be placed under your education heading at the top. the dates next to your schooling will suffice; you dont need dates for standardized test scores or academic honors. also, cut work eligibility, it's assuemd u can work in the US.

content:

if your applying for consuting, your bullets need to reflect: leadership, analytical skills, communcations skills, teamwork, and client management skills. so far, you've really only hit on analytical skills and a bit on leadership (but not really). make the bullets obvious by using action words that reflect the above attributes. don't assume that the reader will infer teamwork experience from your charity poisition, for example. they review hundreds of resumes, so make it obvious and don't leave it to them to connect the dots.
