How To Show This On Your Resume?

I have gone through several websites of investment banks to look at the skills they look for in an investment banking resume. I came across a few criteria that I am not sure how to show on a resume (or even give an example of if asked).

1. Maintain high professional and ethical standards 2. Ability to articulate complex ideas simply 3. Robust financial and analytical skill set (assuming you are applying for an internship without any finance experience) 4. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills (without an interview this will be difficult to show right?) 5. High degree of intellectual curiosity

Have you come across any criteria during the recruitment season which you have found difficult to illustrate?
