I would appreciate any advice or insight.
I'm worried that my most recent job description may be too loose and superfluous.
Hey, I'd say your resume is solid with sound formatting and legitimate work experience and good academic record. If I were you, however, I will change the following:
4.Your SAT score is awkward- just write sat: 2200/2400 (verbal 730...) 5. Also there's no location for your job. For my resume i have it like this:
XXX BANK DATE DEPARTMENT, INTERN LOCATION
9.put activity under education or under leadership section. i've never seen activity section in the interest/skills line.. however it's completely upto your choice.
in other words, write 1. what you were supposed to do (responsibility) 2. what you actually did (contribution) 3. what you have done (accomplishment, results)
Especially for consulting, showing concrete results and your contribution is important. Also try to quantify your work as much possible. Don't say "increased EBITDA" say "increased EBITDA 2%" , etc.
also some of your bp for strategy internship is kind of redundant.
I am still in school so this might not be accurate!
Hope this helps and good luck!
Hey thanks so much for the in-depth review. I really appreciate.
Perhaps the 3-line BP's is a bit much and i should try to stick to 2-line (with the rare exception of 3). Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
I wil try to look for stronger action verbs and write the descriptions in a more compelling, quantifiable way.
Are there any specific examples that anyone saw where my BP's failed to impress or communicate effectively?
