IB Summer Analyst Resume Review

Hey all,

I'm applying for IB summer analyst positions at bb and mm investment banks and would love to hear all of your suggestions and criticisms.

http://www.razume.com/documents/17875

Hope to find a position with an industry coverage group or the M&A group. Please let me know what you think and how you'd think I'll fair in the selection process. I go to a semi-target in the southeast and have limited connections on wall street...

Thanks so much!

 

i was wanting to differentiate b/t experiences that I thought were more applicable to the position (and therefore wanted to list them first) and those experiences that have given me useful skills but do not directly relate to finance.

thoughts? should I change that?

 

I'd keep the top as education, next section as work experience, topped off by skills, activities, and interests.

To be honest nothing on here that blows me away. You've got good grades, but so does everyone else. There's nothing particularly memorable about your resume and I think you might get dinged there. Do you go to a target / semi target? Leveraging that and doing the whole networking thing might be most helpful for you.

People tend to think life is a race with other people. They don't realize that every moment they spend sprinting towards the finish line is a moment they lose permanently, and a moment closer to their death.
 

I think it's fine. are you at target / semi-target/ or non-target?

I would cut some of the "work" experience and combine with "professional" experience. you don't need to create two separate headers, but if you order it the way you do now (business-related jobs first), you'll convey the message just as well.

right now, it's looking really text heavy

 

op again,

I go to a semi-target that has some recognition on the street but isn't nearly an ivy...I've talked with a lot of alumni in NY and have been trying to best leverage those connections though I'll still be applying through a lot of firms online resume drops.

narwal: I'm double majoring in a joint major, my school doesn't allow three majors (nor even two and a minor), my primary major is finance and my double major is Math/Econ.

After moving things around, I think I came up with a more readable, less text heavy, format. Let me know what you think...
