Way too much white space and i'm not keen on the layout. You need to work on the english as well to make it read with a higher degree of professionalism. As a native, i can immediately tell that english is not your first language. Under work experience at XXX capital these bullet points are poor and need rewording.

U might want to delete your firm's name in the bullet point - " under Rxxxx control "

I listed some things you can improve, way too much white space. Maybe ask your colleagues back at xxx capital to help you out too.

I'm not a banker myself so take my advice with a grain of salt (English way of saying not too seriously/ literally)

  1. I don't think address is needed in the CV, usually, name, email and mobile number will do
  2. Is it necessary to mention the FT league in your CV or did u just put that for WSO people to know you go to a target uni?
  3. Remove fully thought in English, adds no value imo
  4. 16/20, remove brackets
  5. Awarded €xxx for academic excellence from ..... Name scholarship
  6. No need for 3 bullet points for your high school, if u can mention all subjects in one bullet point - Mathematics 17/20 Econ 19/20
  7. Keep all your bullet points in the same vertical line, position of bullet points change from work experience
  8. where are the dates, u don't mention dates for uni, school or any of ur work experiences
  9. No need to describe what XXX capital is
  10. Work experience - xx capital, 2nd bullet point is two sentences: when using Bullet points stick to one sentence
  11. Work experience - xx capital, 4th bullet point, this is copied from WSO template, pls change it
  12. Sports shouldn't really be given a separate header I feel, same goes for MS skills, keep the national rugby thing in the CV
  13. Interest - shouldn't really be given a header on its own i feel travelling is something everyone writes
 

my man! i'm also portuguese and looking to get into IB. Although i'm studying in a german university. Would be cool to connect maybe. At the moment i'm in London doing an internship and i'll be in Lisbon for a week before heading back to Munich. So yeah just lmk
