I thought this "roast my resume" is only a thing on Reddit. Ok, I will bite:

  • Remove CFA Program Participant experience, you already have it in certifications section. 
  • Coursework: fit into one line, Investment Banking, Corporate Finance, Python & R Programming are relevant. Others not too much for equity research. 
  • Experience / leadership / clubs / academic projects: Not going to deep dive for free. In general, 99% of resume I work on talk about what you did, instead of what you accomplished. So one, reframe into what you accomplished, two, quantify it (we need more of “over 10k readers per month”)
  • Skills: Financial modeling and data science are good enough for me. Rest remove. You have a MFin, I expect you to have skills, whether you can apply it cannot be shown by listing all the skills entailed in the profession. 
  • Computer: a lot of programming stuff here, I would keep Python and R, rest not sure if it’s relevant (that’s my subjective view tho). Add any business visualization skill if you have (eg. Looker, Tableau, etc.)
