Resume Critique Appreciated - Summary of my background

Hey, I am looking for some help refining my resume. I think it could use some touching up before I go on a massive employment search.

Here is a summary of me:
- Fresh MBA grad looking for full time employment.
- Engineering background.
- Completed an 8-month work term at a Big 5 Canadian Bank.
- Missed interview season to do an exchange term in Europe. I don’t regret it because I met amazing people over there and had a great time. I keep in touch with people I met over there from all over the world to share our views and ideas on respective local markets.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Also: If you had this resume and an offer for an un-paid 4-month summer internship that could grow into a full time position would you consider it? Or would you look for only full-time employment? The offer is at a very small institutional brokerage firm focusing on event-driven ideas.

 

For GPA you need to put 3.7/4.0, and add GMAT score if it's good.

Also, take out the line saying transcripts and references available on request, that's useless and you can do better with the space it takes up.

The content looks good, but the formatting could be fixed a bit. Try checking out some of the standard formats.

You sound like the most boring person in the world to me, if that's really why you keep in contact with the people you met on your exchange...
