Hello all - I'm aiming to switch to FT IB from my S&T SA gig this past summer. School/company names have been changed to similar firms.
I left some experiences on there that I know will probably be taken out but figured to let the monkeys decide.

Add a line of skills/interests, dont go overboard. shows that you are a person with interests outside of school/work
Hard to find room - should I take off anything to make it fit?
What size font are you using? You can try putting fonts to 10 or 10.5. Or else i will just probably add a line under activities with regards to your eagle scout achievements.
Size 11 Times New Roman for the longer text - I probably could just mention the Eagle scout in passing under "Activities and Interests" or something to that effect - thanks for the help.
Anyone else?
Recommendations to make space: >Use a consistent font size throughout, except for your name (which you have done). Having you bullets' font size smaller than the header looks awkward. >Remove the medical center internship completely or just remove its description bullet >Remove the eagle scout and make a section at the bottom along the lines of "other accomplishments and interests" >Move bit about speaking to prospective students down to that new "other" section as well >Consider removing the bullet descriptions on the less relevant clubs
Recommendation where you need to use more space: >MM internship. This is your most relevant experience, but you've given it the same amount of space as your UBS internship
Agree with olafenizer but add a list of relevant skills at the bottom, if you have any. Bloomberg, statistical software, etc.
The medical center internship takes up space, might beg more questions than it solves. Plus it's not relevant to your goal job so you might consider taking it out.
Thanks - I am fairly proficient with Bloomberg after this past summer but am not certified or anything. Other than that, the only programs I would say I am truly proficient with are those in the MS Office suite (which many people say not to list). What do you think - should I list them anyway?
