Please Destroy My Resume

Ever consider transferring to Emory?

I know Bank of America has a few bank teller internships available.

Try adding specific metrics instead of just saying increased this or that thing. The TA job is in present tense, the others are in past tense.

Overall, looks pretty good.

My thought is do it all past tense you aren't doing it at this instant.

Or make it something like 'responsible for grading papers' if it's something you still do.

3.92?!?! Why not a 4.0? 2200?!?! Only idiots get less than 2400. Teacher's assistant?!?! Most pre-bankers should be teaching the class!!! Sailing is for elitist pricks, and playing tennis is for little girls... you should do MMA or any real sport. In the words of Charles Barkley, this resume is turrible.

(...Consider yourself destroyed.)

Don't lie to yourself, you have probably been sailing once and you hated it

Notwithstanding the college you attend, I admit your background looks fairly good for a freshman, but the resume needs to sharpen up a lot. My list of suggestions are: - Take out the SAT scores as you're applying to a company NOT a college. - Replace 'Teacher's Assistant' with 'Teaching Assistant'. - Some of the descriptions below 'Work Experience' is a little bit too wordy. Cut down the clutter and create a small separate section titled 'Relevant Skills and Knowledge' below 'Work Experience' with bullet points. - Unless you're experienced in sailing (i.e.: grew up in it and competed), I'd take it out as it's unnecessary attempt to look elitist. Beware: Personalities flow in resumes too. - For aesthetic/appearance purposes, my personal preference is that you either decrease the width of your margins or that you indent your bullet points.

Hope my suggestions help. Good luck!

In my opinion, -SAT scores are fine. A lot of companies like that. -Sailing is fine. It is a little elitist, but it's not like it is Polo! -Other suggestions above are good.

Yeah keep the SAT makes you look smart. Very small chance they ask you why you didn't attend a (semi)-target with those scores (bad high school grades?) to which you can easily say money, culture, whatever.

-EDITED

Much better! Don't want to nitpick but... -"Education" should be at the top. - Though I think it's great that you took the "Breaking Into Wall Street" course, it's not only unnecessary to put it on your resume but it cheapens it. Ultimately it's your call but I honestly think your past work experience with financial modelling and the fact that you passed CFA Level I & II does enough justice.

-EDIT

Don't over-think. Keep things simple. I took a look at "Breaking into Wall St." and it's very basic compared to what you're currently doing at your work. You'll be fine!
