Hopefully someone else comes in with more to say about the content, but after a quick skim here's my thoughts:

-I don't think the blue is worth it, it has no benefit and the resume reader could dislike it, don't risk it. -get rid of the attendant line at the bottom -If you need space later you could probably get rid of the line under Canadian Securities course, and reduce the bullets on the extracircs to 2 each -Change "Snow Wasteland, Canada" to "Beyond the Wall, North".

Again, hopefully someone else can do more content specifics. It looks really good though, pull up that cumulative and you're golden.

 

Thanks so much guys, I'll definitely change the blue on my resume. If anyone else could offer some advice on my resume content, that would be great!

Ditch the blue. Drop the course in the top to activities. You were doing an internship during this. Either the internship or the course wasn't that serious. Drop "the target" before HNW investors. Drop "to our clients" after VP pitching the sale. Can be assumed he was pitching a sale to clients. Get rid of "to find the average multiples of the industry". You already said you were doing multiples analysis, don't need to again. Ditch "shown on their financial statements" from the next line. Can be assumed. Drop "which helped the growth of the organization." from the last bullet of the think tank - not needed. "achieved maximum efficiency of the budget." - maybe give an example of how you did this / what this means. "Provided in-depth analysis and investment recommendations regarding current business news." - would say based on current business news, or something like that. "CNOOC-Nexen merger, RIM’s BB10 controversies and the U.S. dockworkers’ strike" - if you're going to put these specific events on your resume, make sure you are ready to be grilled on them.

Though it wouldn't be chronological, put the IB internship above the wealth management!

Is it considered fine by recruiters screening resumes? I'm just hesitant on doing that since IB is really strict on format
