Some Resume/Cover Letter Questions
1) Does it matter if you have your address/phone number/email at the bottom of your resume, rather than the top?
2) On the internship experience section, what pieces of information are necessary? e.g. Can you leave out the city?
3) After a list (e.g. of extracurricular activities) should there be a period if it's not a sentence?
4) What does everyone think of a "relevant coursework" section from school, if it's linked to I-Banking/finance/accounting?
5) If sending in a cover letter via a company's website on one of their forms, should one still include a header with the date, the address, etc.?

Thank you!
I don't use bullet points, I use semicolons to separate points because it will take up less space and you don't have to go to the next line to start a new "bullet"
i really would advise against this, if i see a resume that is hard to read come across my desk i throw it away take a look at some of the "best i-banking resume" guides, i don't think you will see this, but maybe i am wrong
Out of curiosity, who usually reads resumes for analyst/summer analyst positions?
HR recruiters, current analysts at the firm, etc?
HR at first, they essentially filter them.
When listing GPA, is it fine to just list one decimal place, or will this make the reader wary?
e.g. If someone had a 3.69 and listed it was 3.7/4.0 rather than putting 3.69/4.00
