Not bad, I liked the gig of you working with a member of congress. In Investment management/research you're well on your way but investment banking... ehhh.. you're going need to have a superman resume for that one.
What kind of positions are you applying for? You will want to tailor your resume to highlight different things and include more details about different things depending on what your goals are. Here are some general comments:
Take out the technical skills line. It's expected that people can operate MS Office software, and putting it on your resume makes it sound like you recently figured it out and are proud of it. Also run a spell check (activities is spelled wrong). More quantification would also strengthen the resume (e.g. "Responsible for organization of payables and receivables amounting to an average of $X/month"). Under activities, did you do anything special at any of those organizations? That might be a good place to add some more points.
The resume looks good to me. I'm going to qualify my review by saying I'm from Big 4 - you definitely need some perspectives from bankers if that's the route you're trying to take.
What are you applying for?
Is it common to post the amount of your scholarships? I find that kind of odd.
I wasn't sure about the amounts of the scholarships, I didn't have them before and a couple people suggested that I put them on there.
Not directing this at you per say. I've seen this on a few others and it just seems strange, but may be a good idea. What does everyone else think?
Well I suggested it, and have had other people suggest it who have looked over my resume. That doesn't mean it's right, but the previous verbiage was something like awarded to people with above a 1320 SAT which really isn't impressive. I think the dollar value works better since you need to clarify what a Golden Oaks is. I guess you could just put merit based scholarship but I like it when the dollar value is 10k+.
How would this sound: "Golden Oaks Scholarship - 100% out-of-state tuition"
Upon review, I think I may just keep it conservative at "Golden Oaks Scholar". Not much to gain, a lot to lose.
