as an 18 year old these should be your top four priorities: (1) doing major damage to your liver, (2) getting laid, (3) having a blast with your buddies and (4) repeating 1-3.

don't worry about resumes just yet. look forward to college and the insane weekends you'll have, not investment banking.

 

1) Remove the border.

2) Make it fit onto 1 page - if you really have to, play around with margins & font size.

3) I would suggest putting your uni on (just a quick 1 line).

4) Take out "Languages: Fluent in English" - this is a given, only have a "languages" section if you speak a 2nd language. Try come up with a sport you play/are interested in.

5) You need to get a finance related work experience/club position pronto.

6) Possibly remove 1/2 of your 1 line work/leadership experiences - for space - and they don't really add much (keep 1, 2 & 5 - remove rest).

 

get rid of the languages section if you just know english instead of writing church under activities write volunteering also everyone word with more then three letters under skills, activities, and interests should be capitalized
