Resume Critique for Summer Analyst Position [Target/Semi-Target University]

Please critique my resume. I am a junior at a target/semi-target depending on the firm.

I am applying for SA positions at all the BB and Elite Boutique Banks, maybe some MM. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Overall looks very good. Couple points:

  • $200-400mm what? Valuation? Revenue? Would specify. Also confused about what you mean. Were you working for that chemical company evaluating potential targets? Or were you working for the firm buying that chemicals co? Would make that more clear.
  • You don't need "with Associate" in your valuation analysis bullet
  • I'd take a bullet each off your past experiences and write more on your banking experience. If it's a very small boutique, I'd add a bullet briefly describing the bank. "Boutique investment bank founded in XXX focusing on sell-side M&A transactions in the XXX space. One of XXX summer analysts."
  • Did you get an offer to return to the boutique bank? If so, definitely put that. If not, have a good reason why.
  • "dollars" is redundant under student run investment fund. Make sure you have 1 or 2 good, deep pitches ready for what you looked at in your fund.
