Resume Critique: how to bankify corporate finance experience

Hey guys. Can you please grill my resume and tell me which areas need improvement? i was asked by a contact to forward my resume to him but i didn't want to do so without properly tailoring it. I'll do my best to SB those who help (i have 4 atm. I will be more active on here for sure :))

Thanks again!

 

Bump for a potential response lol (can't believe after all these years, i got what the point of bump was)

There's a closer meaning to my user name. Try reading it quickly. Perhaps you will then understand ;P

Glaringly obvious formatting issues - bullet alignment, right alignment does not end with the header lines. Dean's list awkwardly on its own line. Spell out your entire degree. When your resume lacks content and has this much white space, then you should spell everything out (full dates, no abbreviations, etc) and properly space everything.

 

Thank you. Yeah, that's basically what an alumni told me when he asked for resume. (looking at it right now, its insane how many silly errors there are.) Do you have any suggestions as to how i can populate it?

I don't know why i can't SB (says credit, but i will be sure to give you an SB when it pops up).

a) i am. its about 15 hours at a coffee shop, 40 hours at an f500, 12 credits of class, and 10 hours of powerlifting meet prep. It's a bit brutal, but i feel like it forces you to maintain your time more efficiently. b) I was sure that this was the case, but an alumni that reviewed by resume told me to use this form (present for current roles. past tense for past roles etc.) c) can you please clarify the last point? do you mean only use information that apply directly to the job that i am in?

Again, thank you for the constructive feedback. Would it be worthwhile to reach out to folks in regional boutiques and try to land an internship during winter break? is it a plausible solution to having a relevant experience to banking?
