Resume vs. Experience, and Open Questions

Hi guys,

quick questions

1) what is your preference?
- A+ experience with average resume writing
- A+ resume writing with average experience

2)
*EDIT: bankers would really take those ONLINE APPLICATION open questions like what is the achievement you're proud of, why to choose IBD, etc.. SERIOUSLY?

3) personal experience: PE intern at a $600mm fund of a European bank, part-time associate at one of MBB consulting and intern at big4, while also helped setting up a new venture... you guys would let this kid pass CV screening to the interview?

much appreciated if any comments

1) Confused... It isn't difficult to refine a resume to make it "good."

2) No clue what you're asking. If you are asking do they take these questions seriously, then yes.

3) Good chance. It depends what else is on your resume.
