I have spent a lot of time crafting my story going through all my experiences, but it comes out to 5 minutes which is wayyyy too long. Problem is, I really like the way it flows and feel like it really does a good job of explaining my path to banking and touching on everything important. Anyways, I'm wondering how you guys keep it short/concise but also cover every thing in enough depth. I've had three relevant finance internships, but each is different enough that I feel they have to be addressed separately, and this alone takes a good chunk of time. Appreciate any feedback

Leave out as much extra info as possible (as there 100% is if it's 5 minutes...) and shorten it up closer to 2-3, max. Your relevant finance internships shouldn't each have the same amount of time devoted to them – your most dated one should be least, with the middle in the middle, and most importantly on the more recent, and if they're all different enough, focus on what translates to what you're looking for now depending on who you're speaking with.
Questions will typically be asked and your extra information can easily come out when they're raised, and if you've crafted your story in such a nice way, it'll come out in other parts of the conversations you have.

Echoing this, you want to keep some details to yourself so you can answer your interviewer's questions. This is a conversation, not a soliloquy.
That advice applies more broadly, too. Don't say everything you know about a topic the first time it comes up.
