Resume Review for FT Canadian IB

I'm looking to land a full time gig at big 5 Canadian bank. Struck out for SAs, working at a pesnion fund this summer and go to a "target" Canadian school. Rough draft of my resume but please shred it. I know I need to add more under my current job, just thinking of what else I can put.

Thanks in advance

Condense GPA and Dean’s list into one line to make your education section seem smaller. More whitespace between sections and job titles, make your headings a larger font, Change “Ontario” to “ON”.

Don't have any bullets more than 2 lines long. We both are in the same program at your “target Canadian” school (I can easily tell by the headings and the way you write your bullets). The bullet point examples they give in the CM book are garbage because they are wayyyy too long and wordy. Keep it two lines max, short and sweet, but as always, keep it results orientated. Also, get creative with the third heading; god knows how many “Other Activities & Interests” headings those poor resume readers see…

The bullets for your extra-curricular don’t have to be as results-orientated, so split them up into 2 bullets for each.

As for what else you should put in, only you know what work you did so it’s up to you!

Good luck!
