I'm currently a rising Junior and want to break into IB eventually. The problem is I have a Corporate Finance/Accounting background.
How would I 'bankify' the top bullets of my resume? What kind of wording and phrasing are they looking for? If you guys could help me direct these bullets more toward banking I would greatly appreciate it!

I mean no matter how you spin the yarn and Accounting gig is an Accounting gig. I noticed you had some sort of role in a student run fund. Make that seem more important than it is and use this as your ticket in. In your interviews you can say: I was doing Accounting blah blah blah, but my recent exposure to financial analysis through this activity helped me decide that Accounting is not right for me and I belong in IB or whatever.
