Non-Target Student Resume -- Please Critique

Good evening all,

Please take a look at this resume and let me know what you think. I am trying to break into BB IBD and go to a non-target state university.

Feel free to be honest.

Thanks!

@ JeffSkilling

Do you think there is any added benefit to having a unique resume that sticks out?

I'm obviously not JeffSkilling, but I'll reiterate the NO as well. It can only hurt you.

I think the M&I resume will stand out. It's not like everyone knows about it, especially at a non target. Plus, its the content that's going to stand out, not the format.

Honestly the format you posted is OK but not great. Definitely lose the blue highlights.

I really like your resume. Some of those classes (Derivatives, Fixed Income, M&A) are great offerings especially considering non-target. Looks like you took all the right classes to me.

Internship looks good but I would second the format switch and also if you could add another experience. Extracurriculars look good.

Keep in mind im an undergrad as well not a professional. Good luck.
