How do I cold call for a position?

I've been looking to breaking into IB and PE. Anyone have any good cold calling techniques that I can use. Also, Please give me some resume critique. I could use the feedback.

PM if it's anything serious

Sorry bro but I smell so much bullshit. First of all, put your GPA. Second of all, don't say you have expertise. Third of all, your description of your previous work experience smells like so much bullshit.

You crave what you are not. Dude, your perspective on life sucks.
 

I think you're overselling yourself a bit too hard here. Also the content + formatting, although neat, is a little overwhelming.

You are claiming to be an experienced analyst with one SA gig, from a glance it doesn't seem like you did any valuation, it seems more like wealth management.

Why is your GPA not posted if you graduated Cum Laude?

You have expertise in modeling yet you have no work experience in modeling?

These are all questions someone would ask when look at your resume. You should keep that in mind as you send it out.
