I'm interested in client PM roles at companies like Northern Trust, Harris Bank, JPMorgan Private Bank etc. I feel I'm a strong candidate but am not getting any responses. I'd appreciate any feedback on my resume. Why no bite?

There must be something other than your CV because that's a pretty stellar one. I would take the summary off and use that to expand on individual positions. But it's a solid CV.
Resume looks pretty good. I agree with removing the summary section.
Agreed this is a very strong resume, but a couple of things: First, some of your bullet point have to change like gained knowledge of equityies, commodities currencies, who gives a flying f#$*#(). Obviously you should know something about these instruments since you are working in finance. That aside, the main reason is that you haven't finished your CFA. You're a Level III candidate which is an awesome accomplishment in itself (I'm stuck on II btw), but nearly every PM on the planet has finished their CFA. I'd stay stick it out another year crush L III in June, and then you should be golden. Very solid resume overall .
PS Any tips on L II?
Thanks for the feedback guys. This economy doesn't help with the job search, and going through the company website is also not ideal, no matter how good your resume is.
Cleo, LII is a beast as I'm sure you know. My advice would be to start right now. Go through the CFA readings one time through. Do the EOC questions. Then if you are able to do Schweser. Go through the Schweser readings and EOC questions. I would then go through the CFA EOC questions again. About 2 months before the exam. Do as many practice questions as you can, and brush up on any weak areas. I also would suggest not taking more than 2 practice exams, and don't take them until about a month out. You don't want to be learning new concepts a month before the exam. Basically just study at least 10 hours a week for the next few months, and then about 4-5 months before the exam, go up to 15 at least. Just be consistent in your studying. Good luck.
