Choose CV out of two types

Dear All,

Please choose between: 1) http://www.razume.com/documents/18357 and 2) http://www.razume.com/documents/18358

2) has one more line in the experience field, however, looks messy imho. is the 2-month experience in a commercial bank worth putting on the CV if looking for Corp Fin?

Please comment on the highlighted areas and anything else. Looking forward to your suggestions!

2nd one is much, much better. first one looks like it has much more white space, and it looks sort of artsy? not really sure how to describe it, but it looks like you tried way too hard on the aesthetics, lol

edit: also, seeing as that you've already worked at GS/MS, i don't think there's a need to make some extremely bold and different looking resume... work experience should speak for itself in this case. i'd expand that GS/MS part too - it's clearly the most important aspect of the resume.

 
1 is forcing you to write shorter bullets because you dedicated 1/3 the width of the document to just dates. This is a terrible waste of space if you actually have good content to put on the resume.
