Levfin CV review

Hi everyone,

Would appreciate a brutal CV review. For context, I have a slightly non traditional background: I skipped undergrad and went straight into a Big 4 apprenticeship programme, then later moved straight into a Master’s in Finance at a non/semi target (think Cass/Kings/Nottingham). Most of my experience so far has been on the buyside, mainly across credit. I’m now targeting Leveraged Finance, but also considering Debt Advisory, Restructuring and Direct Lending roles.

Would appreciate honest feedback on whether the CV is positioned well for these roles, what looks weak, and whether it would realistically get screened in.

Thanks.
